After many months of editing, revising, and writing, my new book Pro SQL Server 2022 Wait Statistics: A Practical Guide to Analyzing Performance in SQL Server and Azure SQL Database is ready for print!

I thoroughly enjoyed this project, and I want to thank Apress and Jonathan Gennick for giving me the opportunity to update the previous edition. It felt good to be writing again, something I have not been doing enough of lately. And many thanks to Enrico van de Laar (@evdlaar) for giving me amazing content to start with.
The book is an effort to help explain how, why, and when wait events happen. Of course, I also want to show how to solve issues when they arise. Specific wait events are broken down into parts: definition, remediation, and an example. There are plenty of code examples, allowing the reader to duplicate the scenarios to help understand the wait events better.
It is my understanding we will have a GitHub repository for the sample code. This will make it easy for a reader to access the code for their use. I am hoping to keep the repo up to date and expand upon the example as I look towards the next version.
