We're testing an upgrade from SQL 2012 to SQL 2019, but tests indicate performance in SQL 2019 with compatibility level 110 is worse than native SQL 2012 for some critical queries and switching to compatibility level 150 (native 2019) is […] |

I changed the compatibility level to 150 to take advantage of the Adaptive Memory Grants. It's been in place for around a month […] |

MSSQL STRING_AGG() Conversion failed when converting the varchar value to int. - Short story, I needed to convert a table insert/update trigger to a Service Broker task.
