# DB24 AiQ — Elevate Your  
SQL Server Game \_ 

**Aggregated Instance Quality (AiQ)** provides a **clear, unified score** for each of your SQL Server instances — reflecting their **current health, configuration, and performance**.

These scores are calculated from a **wide range of metrics and best-practice checks**. Think of AiQ as your **SQL health coach** – it highlights instances that may need attention and uncovers opportunities to optimize your data platform.

#### DB24 AiQ in Action

See how Aggregated Instance Quality helps you monitor and optimize your SQL Server instances

## Why AiQ Matters

Managing SQL Servers can be complex – with dozens of settings, patch levels, and performance metrics to keep track of. AiQ simplifies this by turning technical complexity into a **single, actionable score**, so you can:

-   **See Your Entire Landscape at a Glance** – Quickly identify which instances are healthy and which need attention.
    
-   **Prioritize with Confidence** – Focus your time where it matters most, guided by objective scoring.
    
-   **Track Improvements Over Time** – Watch your scores improve as you apply DB24's recommendations.
    
-   **Align with Best Practices** – AiQ is built on industry standards and Microsoft guidelines, so you stay future-proof.
    

## How AiQ Works

### We Collect Metrics

DB24 continuously gathers instance- and database-level information from your SQL Servers.

### We Apply Best Practices

Each metric is compared against Microsoft and industry best practices across areas like configuration, performance, security, and availability.

### We Calculate Your Score

Results are aggregated into a single **AiQ score (0–10)**, grouped by key categories such as Storage, Security, Performance, Backup & Recovery, and more.

### We Provide Recommendations

You get **clear, actionable suggestions** on how to raise your score and keep your environment healthy.
