    Overview

    DB Optimizer helps database administrators to tune and profile SQL code across database platforms. Unlike its competition, it provides automated SQL tuning and performance optimization suggestions with color-coded index analysis, database profiling of wait-time analysis for a single stored routine or an entire data source, SQL stress load testing to simulate a production environment with parallel users and executions over a specific period of time or execution cycle, and review of SQL execution and performance costs using explain plans.

    SolarWinds Database Performance Analyzer is a powerful monitoring service that allows customers to monitor their databases. It offers system metrics such as RAM consumption, IO, network traffic, etc. The service is available for both on-prem and cloud deployments, making it a versatile solution for businesses of all sizes. 

    The most valuable feature is its ability to monitor and learn from the data it collects, helping identify issues and problems before they become major problems, and saving businesses time and money. The service also provides supporting information for performance advising, which helps optimize database performance.
