IT Infrastructure Cost Savings
Use insights from performance monitoring to help reduce database infrastructure costs
Eliminate over-provisioning and maximize database utilization to reduce overhead costs
SolarWinds® Database Observability makes it easier to identify which subsets of database workloads are consuming too many resources. Use those insights to achieve better performance from your servers, decrease your data center footprint, and offset hardware purchases—with the overall goal of reducing database infrastructure costs. Through its monitoring capabilities, Database Observability is built to provide actionable insights critical to optimizing your database instances and keeping your IT infrastructure costs low.
Get the insights you need to maximize system utilization
With customizable dashboards and charts, Database Observability is built to provide clear visibility into the health of your database instances and queries, enabling you to see which specific instances and queries need attention or optimization. Paired with proactive alerting and regular reports about system performance, you have a database software cost optimization solution designed to help ensure your systems are working efficiently, so you can better keep costs minimal.
Share operational views and help reduce risks
SolarWinds Observability SaaS offers consolidated monitoring for your entire IT team, with insights into your entire stack from a single pane of glass. Database Observability is built to collect, organize, and analyze metrics from thousands of network nodes, offering easy-to-share graphs and charts based on high-level system data or granular analysis. By providing your entire engineering team with visibility into database performance, developers can better grasp how their code affects resource utilization and other team members can mitigate risks if a DBA is unavailable. This can help your organization reduce key-person risk, capacity risk, and process risk.
Get More on Database Costs
Do you find yourself asking…
IT infrastructure supports applications built to offer end-user business functionality, and databases are a form of infrastructure. Costs related to your overall infrastructure include various database costs, including purchasing, monitoring, and maintenance costs.
IT infrastructure includes databases and other elements, including server, storage, and network infrastructure. Infrastructure can support applications that allow employees, customers, and other end users to access or engage with these same resources. Having the right type and sufficient amount of infrastructure resources is important for supporting services—while inefficiencies can cause higher costs than necessary.
Infrastructure and database costs can also be related to the environment. Organizations can house their infrastructure and applications on-premises, in the cloud, or in a hybrid environment with elements of both. There are advantages and IT infrastructure costs associated with each approach, but both specific needs and budget should determine this choice.
No matter where the infrastructure and applications used are housed, database infrastructure administering should also include monitoring and managing both infrastructure and databases performance to guarantee the availability and health of the systems, a process that can also add on extra costs, especially if problems arise.
While infrastructure and database monitoring and maintenance can add costs, it’s also critical for keeping other associated costs as low as possible, so you can fix problems quickly rather than over-purchasing resources or losing valuable business time due to downtime. Improving your problem resolution times often requires advanced tools that offer visibility into the performance of individual applications and other network components, with the end goal of ensuring infrastructure and database cost savings.
