我想分享对我有效的方法

SELECT
      QUOTENAME(SCHEMA_NAME(sOBJ.schema_id)) + '.' + QUOTENAME(sOBJ.name) AS [TableName]
      , SUM(sdmvPTNS.row_count) AS [RowCount]
FROM
      sys.objects AS sOBJ
      INNER JOIN sys.dm_db_partition_stats AS sdmvPTNS
            ON sOBJ.object_id = sdmvPTNS.object_id
WHERE 
      sOBJ.type = 'U'
      AND sOBJ.is_ms_shipped = 0x0
      AND sdmvPTNS.index_id < 2
GROUP BY
      sOBJ.schema_id
      , sOBJ.name
ORDER BY [TableName]
GO

数据库托管在Azure中，最终结果是:

接受的答案在Azure SQL上不适合我，这里有一个，它非常快，完全符合我的要求:

select t.name, s.row_count
from sys.tables t
join sys.dm_db_partition_stats s
  ON t.object_id = s.object_id
    and t.type_desc = 'USER_TABLE'
    and t.name not like '%dss%'
    and s.index_id = 1
order by s.row_count desc

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。

USE DatabaseName
CREATE TABLE #counts
(
    table_name varchar(255),
    row_count int
)

EXEC sp_MSForEachTable @command1='INSERT #counts (table_name, row_count) SELECT ''?'', COUNT(*) FROM ?'
SELECT table_name, row_count FROM #counts ORDER BY table_name, row_count DESC
DROP TABLE #counts

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。

我在http://www.sqlteam.com/forums/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=21021上找到了一个帮助我的片段:

select t.name TableName, i.rows Records
from sysobjects t, sysindexes i
where t.xtype = 'U' and i.id = t.id and i.indid in (0,1)
order by TableName;
