| Database Performance Optimization |
Database Administrators (DBAs) and developers
are under increasing pressure to maintain the highest levels of
database and application performance. They must balance customer
satisfaction and productivity with rising costs and shrinking
budgets. Throwing more hardware or resources at the problem is
no longer an option. Neither are outages or delays. Optimization
tools are needed to ensure that poor-performing code never
reaches the production environment - where it is significantly
more costly to correct bad SQL or application code.
Optimization Challenges
Database Design
Its starts at the database design layer. It is critical that the
database designs conform to relational standards.
Schema Examiner is a design or architecture validation tool
that looks at the structure of the database to find improper
indexing, normalization problems and other relational modeling
errors that impact database performance. It not only finds
problems, but recommends solutions, saving time and improving
productivity during all phases of the database lifecycle.
Development and QA
It is the developer's responsibility to prevent poor-performing
SQL code from reaching production in the first place.
DB Optimizer is a SQL profiling and validation tool that
examines SQL queries to uncover inefficiencies and offers
alternatives to improve SQL performance and prevent
poor-performing SQL from ever reaching the production
environment.
Production
Continuous monitoring of database performance allows DBAs to
quickly find and correct problematic SQL statements and ensure
faster response times for better end-user experience.
Performance Center helps spot performance issues impacting
an organization's bottom line. In real-time, DBAs can observe
their enterprise databases in a single view to see how they are
performing at any point in time. DBAs can then quickly drill
down into every detail of a database's performance to determine
the root cause of any response problems.
Once they have located the problem, DB Optimizer can quickly
tune the problematic SQL code and restore optimum performance.
