SQL
Performance Optimization and Monitoring
You Asked - We Listened
You wanted the
option of having a Windows based reporting front
end with real-time dashboard functionality, in
addition to our
standard web based reports module. Now you
can have both. We are pleased to announce
our new Periscope Reports for Windows module -
free with all the rest of the Periscope for SQL
Server family of utilities.
Display your top 10
(or 50 or 500, etc.) most expensive queries
by CPU, disk I/O, memory, duration, etc.
See which queries are
run most often
by user, application, host, database, date, etc.
Associate system
performance metrics with the exact SQL statements
. See exactly which SQL query caused the CPU to spike to 100% last night.
Associate system
utilization trends with application utilization trends
. For example, show that a 10% increase in your ECommerce application
caused a 25% increase in Disk I/O. Use this information to forecast
future hardware needs.
Show complete blocking
scenarios
, including the involved SQL statements, DB objects, host, application,
duration, etc.
Receive alerts
based on performance metrics thresholds.
24/7 monitoring with
virtually zero overhead
. No components installed on target SQL Servers
Highly configurable monitoring
service. Capture data by statement performance or duration,
database, application, host, time of day, etc.
All data is maintained in the Periscope Repository Database
for long term trend analysis.Has

Periscope
captures SQL database performance metrics and provides a central repository for
analytical data. You can view detailed information on database access and
SQL command metrics, isolate and resolve performance problems - including
blocking - and perform long term trend analysis with the supplied HTML based
reports. All this is accomplished with near zero overhead on the target
SQL servers.
