What We're Working On for DPA (Updated January, 2021)

To receive updates on the DPA roadmap, JOIN thwack and BOOKMARK this page

Here is a partial list of the things we are currently working on. Your comments and feedback are always welcome and have been vital in shaping Database Performance Analyzer into the product it is today. We are always listening, so please forward your feature requests, problems and use-case stories.

• Update monitored DB registration wizards to not require privileged user credentials
  • Enable registration wizards to accept an existing DB login for use as the monitoring user instead of creating a new monitoring user. This enables registration wizards to execute with reduced roles (e.g., no sys, sysadmin, or sa privileged role requirements) similar to what is supported with the mass registration option today.
•  Enhanced Security Capabilities and Configurations
  • Integrate with CyberArk to store/manage authentication credentials
  • Leverage SignPath as well as additional web application security enhancements
• Support Google Cloud SQL managed databases
• Alert status enhancements:
  • Improved workflows, filtering, and sorting
  • Alert status for instances on home page
  • Webhook notifications
• Add area baselines to new Resources metric charts
