Top 7 reasons to use Database Performance Analyzer for SQL Server
Identify performance issues that impact application response time the most
Response Time Analysis helps you make changes that end-users will notice when their apps run faster.
Eliminate Finger-Pointing Across the IT Team
SolarWinds’ SQL Server performance monitoring software builds collaboration among DBAs, Developers, Q/A and Server Administrators.
Learn moreImprove Performance Without Additional Server Resources
Investing in hardware to resolve application performance problems is a big gamble unless you are certain the performance bottleneck is, in fact, caused by server resources. DPA helps pinpoint the root cause of problems and allows you to validate your hardware purchases.
Learn moreScale from one to thousands of Monitored Instances
DPA Central provides a consolidation of performance metrics from thousands of monitored instances
Reduce blocking and deadlocks
DPA identifies the cumulative waits caused by root or lead blockers, as well as total victim impact in deadlocks so you can focus tuning efforts on the queries that will result in faster execution time. DPA also lets you see into the objects that are waiting the longest as a result of blocking, and identifies the last query of an idle blocker.
Eliminate database bottlenecks on AWS and Azure
Get unparalleled visibility to performance on the Amazon® Cloud. Database Performance Analyzer’s Multi-Dimensional Performance Analysis identifies historical performance trends and gives you actionable advice on the inner workings of database instances deployed on an Amazon AWS RDS and EC2® virtual machine.
Learn moreMonitors ALL your databases - on-premise, in the Cloud, or a service
Don't be forced into different tools to monitor you databases - get DPA instead. Its the only tool that provides full coverage of your databases, no matter how it is deployed - physical, virtual, cloud or DBaaS, we've got you covered.
Learn moreSQL Server Performance Tuning
Often, database performance issues result from poorly written queries, bad design, or index strategies. Unlike hardware upgrades, SQL query tuning can offer immediate and powerful results. However, effective SQL tuning requires not only knowing the top SQL statements, but also the top wait types, SQL plans, the effect of missing indexes, blocked queries, and resource contention. DPA isolates the root cause, provides the much needed SQL tuning advice and is a must for performance tuning in SQL.
