SQL Server: Script to find Missing Indexes

This article is half-done without your Comment! *** Please share your thoughts via Comment ***

In this post, I am sharing a script to find missing indexes in SQL Server.
When you execute any SQL query, SQL Server also checks for necessary indexes.

But still DBA has to take a decision based on query execution planner. SQL Server stores this different stats into three Dynamic main views which used in below queries.

SELECT TOP 25
ROUND(DMIGS.avg_total_user_cost * DMIGS.avg_user_impact * (DMIGS.user_seeks + DMIGS.user_scans),0) AS TotalCost
,DMID.[statement] AS TableName
,equality_columns
,inequality_columns
,included_columns
FROM sys.dm_db_missing_index_groups AS DMIG
INNER JOIN sys.dm_db_missing_index_group_stats AS DMIGS
ON DMIGS.group_handle = DMIG.index_group_handle
INNER JOIN sys.dm_db_missing_index_details AS DMID
ON DMID.index_handle = DMIG.index_handle
ORDER BY 1 DESC

    This design is incredible! You most certainly know how to keep a reader entertained.

    Between your wit and your videos, I was almost moved to start my own blog (well,
    almost…HaHa!) Wonderful job. I really loved what you had to
    say, and more than that, how you presented it. Too cool!
