Database Performance Analyzer (DPA) Feature Requests

DPA Status Summary
It would be great to see the Status Summary By Group.
Enhance Top SQL Report to INCLUDE the new Anomaly Graph
12.1 introduced the Anomaly Detection feature, which has already proven useful in just the first hour of use - THANKS! When we automatically email each server's TOP SQL Report, the Anomaly part of the "Trends" page, showing "TOP SQL", should be included as an additional chart, immediately below the Top SQL chart. Please…
DPA - REST API to integrate to other Tools
Would be nice for Solarwinds DPA to have REST API for integration to other tools that we can use for overall monitoring.
Anomaly Detection
DPA does a great job of finding where there is lots of wait (big bars), but we'd love for DPA to indicate when wait time is abnormal - higher or lower than normal. Sometime the big bars are not a problem (that's what they always do), and sometime what looks "normal" isn't. New users often have to learn what "normal" looks…
Add a configuration API for DPA
DPA users often have large and/or dynamic environments where managing the instances monitors is painful. It would be great if the instances monitored by DPA could be managed programatically. Potential abilities would include (but not limited to) * Register an instance * License/Unlicense an instance * Start/Stop monitoring…
Have an API for annotation so that an activity from another tool creates a new annotation

Monitor Azure Cosmos DB
We would like to monitor Azure Cosmos DB from within DPA.
Display the actual varbinary sql_handle or plan_handle for the DPA representation
Having the ability to click on a button or link to retrieve the varbinary sql_handle or plan_handle (that can be use to query sys.dm_exec_sql_text) wherever a DPA numeric representation of that handle appears without having to manually hunt for it in the repository would be a great enhancement to the UI.
Replication Performance Monitoring
I would like to see some sort of monitoring and historical views of replication performance. I currently have a custom process that captures data from the Distribution database (MSlogreader_history and MSdistribution_history) and saves the information to a separate database. From there I import the data into Excel for my…
Fix Alert : Tablespace Freespace for Oracle
Requesting that the alert for Tablespace Freespace be updated to take into consideration Tablespaces with AutoExtend ON and Max size set.
