Before you start bugging your boss for beefier servers or the latest Solid State Storage (SSDs), gather and analyze performance data with SolarWinds® Database Performance Analyzer (DPA).
Database Performance Analyzer (DPA) helps:
- Identify the root cause of database performance issues
- See how changes to hardware and virtualization effect database performance
- See clearly down to the physical host how hardware is impacting performance
- Be prescriptive with hardware recommendation
Resolve performance issues by identifying the root cause and fixing it!

Gathering information, establishing baselines, and maintaining history are all critical to maintaining high database performance.
You need a solution that helps you gather information to:
- Justify your hardware purchases based on the value it delivers
- Hold your hardware vendor accountable to their claims to improve performance
- Establish trends over time to see the impact changes have on performance
- Provide actionable information
Do you think scaling hardware is a safe answer?
Do you think scaling hardware is a safe answer?
If you’re an IT Professional, you continuously face the challenge of improving database performance. A common solution to resolve performance problems is to procure SSD storage, servers, or CPU. Investing in hardware is a big gamble unless you understand exactly what the bottleneck is—and if the slowdown is even hardware related. Identify your problem first with Database Performance Analyzer.
Why hardware scaling doesn’t always work:
- How do you justify the value that it delivers?
- What if hardware isn’t the real issue?
- Long lead time to procure, delaying return on investment
- Hardware is expensive, and frequently results in a negligible performance improvement
Database Performance Analyzer is an industry favorite. Hands down.
"Literally, within a week of installing DPA we solved 80 of the performance issues. It just gave us the visibility that we were missing."
"My life is considerably easier because of DPA. I highly recommend it for anybody. It is clearly the best tool out there."
"Often, the root cause of poor performance issues is that the code for the application isn’t properly leveraging the hardware resources. In one case on which I consulted, the addition of indexes in SQL server and a change in transaction isolation level resulted in such significant performance improvements that anticipated daily outages ceased and the tradition of “everyone on call for the holidays” was removed."
"The nice thing about DPA is it really allows us to discern where the real issue really is occurring."
