Why DB Optimizer XE2

Database Administrators (DBAs) and developers are under increasing pressure to maintain the highest levels of database and application performance. They must balance customer satisfaction and productivity with rising costs and shrinking budgets. Throwing more hardware or resources at the problem is no longer an option. Neither are outages or delays. Optimization tools are needed to ensure that poor-performing code never reaches the production environment - where it is significantly more costly to correct bad SQL or application code.

Development and QA

It is the developer's responsibility to prevent poor-performing SQL code from reaching production in the first place. DB Optimizer XE2 is a SQL profiling and validation tool that examines SQL queries to uncover inefficiencies and offers alternatives to improve SQL performance and prevent poor-performing SQL from ever reaching the production environment.

Production

Continuous monitoring of database performance allows DBAs to quickly find and correct problematic SQL statements and ensure faster response times for better end-user experience. Performance Center helps spot performance issues impacting an organization's bottom line. In real-time, DBAs can observe their enterprise databases in a single view to see how they are performing at any point in time. DBAs can then quickly drill down into every detail of a database's performance to determine the root cause of any response problems. Once they have located the problem, DB Optimizer XE2 can quickly tune the problematic SQL code and restore optimum performance.
