Performance Recommendations in Azure Database for MySQL

  • Artikkel

APPLIES TO: Azure Database for MySQL - Single Server

Important

Azure Database for MySQL single server is on the retirement path. We strongly recommend that you upgrade to Azure Database for MySQL flexible server. For more information about migrating to Azure Database for MySQL flexible server, see What's happening to Azure Database for MySQL Single Server?

Applies to: Azure Database for MySQL 5.7, 8.0

The Performance Recommendations feature analyzes your databases to create customized suggestions for improved performance. To produce the recommendations, the analysis looks at various database characteristics including schema. Enable Query Store on your server to fully utilize the Performance Recommendations feature. If performance schema is OFF, turning on Query Store enables performance_schema and a subset of performance schema instruments required for the feature. After implementing any performance recommendation, you should test performance to evaluate the impact of those changes.

Permissions

Owner or Contributor permissions required to run analysis using the Performance Recommendations feature.

Performance recommendations

The Performance Recommendations feature analyzes workloads across your server to identify indexes with the potential to improve performance.

Open Performance recommendations from the Intelligent Performance section of the menu bar on the Azure portal page for your MySQL server.

Select Analyze and choose a database, which will begin the analysis. Depending on your workload, the analysis may take several minutes to complete. Once the analysis is done, there will be a notification in the portal. Analysis performs a deep examination of your database. We recommend you perform analysis during off-peak periods.

The Recommendations window will show a list of recommendations if any were found and the related query ID that generated this recommendation. With the query ID, you can use the mysql.query_store view to learn more about the query.

Recommendations are not automatically applied. To apply the recommendation, copy the query text and run it from your client of choice. Remember to test and monitor to evaluate the recommendation.

Recommendation types

Index recommendations

Create Index recommendations suggest new indexes to speed up the most frequently run or time-consuming queries in the workload. This recommendation type requires Query Store to be enabled. Query Store collects query information and provides the detailed query runtime and frequency statistics that the analysis uses to make the recommendation.

Query recommendations

Query recommendations suggest optimizations and rewrites for queries in the workload. By identifying MySQL query anti-patterns and fixing them syntactically, the performance of time-consuming queries can be improved. This recommendation type requires Query Store to be enabled. Query Store collects query information and provides the detailed query runtime and frequency statistics that the analysis uses to make the recommendation.
