The Performance Hog scarfs up database resources such as IO, CPU, and memory, degrading application performance for your end users. These hogs can take many shapes; improper memory configurations, inadequate storage allocation, and bad queries. Using conventional database monitoring tools, a DBA could spend hours staring at dashboards and analyzing stacks of data to find the source of the problem.
SolarWinds Database Performance Analyzer (formerly Confio Ignite) helps YOU take out the performance hogs
A DBA needs a tool that points him directly to the cause of the performance issue. Database Performance Analyzer's top problem dashboard quickly directs attention to the biggest Performance Hogs, and provides the drill down information necessary to quickly eliminate this monster. By focusing on wait time Database Performance Analyzer pinpoints the hogs that have the biggest impact on response time, delivering results that get noticed.
