Shnugo的答案是唯一一个工作在Azure的Externa表。(1) Azure SQL根本不支持sp_MSforeachtable;External表的partitions总是0。

您可以复制，过去和执行这段代码，以获得所有表记录计数到一个表。注意:代码带有注释

create procedure RowCountsPro
as
begin
--drop the table if exist on each exicution
IF OBJECT_ID (N'dbo.RowCounts', N'U') IS NOT NULL 
DROP TABLE dbo.RowCounts;
-- creating new table
CREATE TABLE RowCounts 
( [TableName]            VARCHAR(150)
, [RowCount]               INT
, [Reserved]                 NVARCHAR(50)
, [Data]                        NVARCHAR(50)
, [Index_Size]               NVARCHAR(50)
, [UnUsed]                   NVARCHAR(50))
--inserting all records
INSERT INTO RowCounts([TableName], [RowCount],[Reserved],[Data],[Index_Size],[UnUsed])
--  "sp_MSforeachtable" System Procedure, 'sp_spaceused "?"' param to get records and resources used
EXEC sp_MSforeachtable 'sp_spaceused "?"' 
-- selecting data and returning a table of data
SELECT [TableName], [RowCount],[Reserved],[Data],[Index_Size],[UnUsed]
FROM RowCounts
ORDER BY [TableName]
end

我已经测试了这段代码，它在SQL Server 2014上运行良好。

如图所示，这将返回正确的计数，而使用元数据表的方法将只返回估计值。

    CREATE PROCEDURE ListTableRowCounts 
    AS 
    BEGIN 
        SET NOCOUNT ON 

        CREATE TABLE #TableCounts
        ( 
            TableName VARCHAR(500), 
            CountOf INT 
        ) 

        INSERT #TableCounts
            EXEC sp_msForEachTable 
                'SELECT PARSENAME(''?'', 1), 
                COUNT(*) FROM ? WITH (NOLOCK)' 

        SELECT TableName , CountOf 
            FROM #TableCounts
            ORDER BY TableName 

        DROP TABLE #TableCounts
    END
    GO

我认为最短、最快、最简单的方法是:

SELECT
    object_name(object_id) AS [Table],
    SUM(row_count) AS [Count]
FROM
    sys.dm_db_partition_stats
WHERE
    --object_schema_name(object_id) = 'dbo' AND 
    index_id < 2
GROUP BY
    object_id

查找SQL reference (http://www.codeproject.com/Tips/811017/Fastest-way-to-find-row-count-of-all-tables-in-SQL)中所有表的行数的最快方法

SELECT T.name AS [TABLE NAME], I.rows AS [ROWCOUNT] 
    FROM   sys.tables AS T 
       INNER JOIN sys.sysindexes AS I ON T.object_id = I.id 
       AND I.indid < 2 
ORDER  BY I.rows DESC
