## What it is
A Microsoft Tiger team repository of as-is scripts, notebooks, and tools for SQL Server administration and maintenance. It includes solutions for topics like TLS configuration, index maintenance, VLF management, and always-on availability groups.

## Use cases
- maintain and tune SQL Server indexes
- configure TLS for SQL Server
- reduce virtual log file (VLF) count
- troubleshoot always-on availability groups
- run SQL Server health checks and maintenance scripts
- automate SQL Server maintenance tasks

## When to choose
- you administer SQL Server and want battle-tested scripts from Microsoft's Tiger team
- you need quick as-is solutions for common SQL Server maintenance and configuration tasks
- you prefer notebook-based, copy-paste diagnostics

## When to avoid
- you use a database other than SQL Server
- you need fully supported, production-grade software with SLAs rather than as-is scripts
- you want a turnkey monitoring product instead of individual scripts

## Facets
- artifact type: cli-tool
- maturity: active
- function: developer-tools, monitoring, database
- domain: databases, developer-tools
- platform: windows
- tags: sql-server, database-maintenance, jupyter-notebooks, tls, index-tuning, microsoft, devops, linux
