Legend has it, the new system will also be able to recommend altering to existing indexes and/or suggest filtered indexes... Basically a DTA that doesn't suck...
So, I'll definitely be keeping an eye out for so see if this becomes a series.This is available in Azure SQL Database right now. I would expect to see this in an upcoming version of the on-premises SQL Server. Note that you can disable index creation and/or index dropping separately.

I did read that article previously and was a bit disappointed that they hadn't already pushed it to on-premise without a full blown version change. I realize this has become the hot new trend for MS release patterns but you would think that their code base would be similar enough that they could push it to on-premise a bit more quickly.[/quote]
This "feature" has been a hot topic as to whether it should actually be in the product. There is one (undocumented) DMV in SQL Server 2017 that seems to pertain to this feature, but there is no data in it (yet). I think it will control whether indexes can be added or dropped - strictly a guess at this point.

Thank you for the info Wayne. I do have access to a few Azure instances (including the freebee that came with my msdn account)... I just haven't stat down and done anything with it yet. I suppose this is my wakeup call. The fact that our new platform is being built on Azure, means I really do need to get on the ball.
