## What it is
A collection of T-SQL stored procedures (sp_Blitz, sp_BlitzCache, sp_BlitzFirst, sp_BlitzIndex, and more) for Microsoft SQL Server health checks and performance tuning. It helps DBAs and developers diagnose server issues, find resource-intensive queries, analyze indexes and deadlocks, and manage backups and restores.

## Use cases
- run a sql server health check
- find the most resource-intensive queries on sql server
- analyze missing or unused indexes
- diagnose why sql server is slow right now
- analyze deadlocks in sql server
- automate multi-file database restores
- run a command against every database on a server

## When to choose
- you administer Microsoft SQL Server and need quick diagnostics
- you want free, community-proven performance tuning scripts
- you need real-time advice on a slow server or deadlock analysis

## When to avoid
- you use a database other than Microsoft SQL Server
- you need a GUI monitoring dashboard rather than T-SQL scripts
- you require commercial support or licensing guarantees

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: active
- function: database, monitoring, benchmarking, developer-tools
- domain: databases, performance, developer-tools
- platform: windows, cli
- tags: sql-server, tsql, stored-procedures, health-checks, performance-tuning, dba-tools, sp-blitz, devops
