Real-time Remediation of Database Performance

Enteros DBAct™ is a comprehensive database monitoring tool for diagnosis, containment and remediation of database performance problems. Designed by DBAs for DBAs, it provides real-time diagnostic reports, performance snapshots, containment and productivity functionality. With DBAct, DBAs and operations engineers can effectively monitor database performance and significantly reduce and contain the problems that severely impact business performance.

Exporer-I Oracle Database Performance Analysis

Comprehensive diagnostic reports

Investigate common contributors to performance degradation with instant, detailed, diagnostic reports.

Identification of top CPU-consuming sessions and machines
Internal buffer busy waits contention and blocking sessions
Fragmentation of shared pool and shared pool free space
Resource manager performance and contention
Latching
Detailed transactional locking
Internal DDL locking and contention
Waits on segments and data blocks

Real-time performance sampling and reporting during database monitoring

Get instantaneous snapshots of critical performance areas before, during and after remediation.

SQL consuming most Buffer Gets (CPU consumption)
Top application servers waiting on problem wait event
Top application servers generating provided performance metric
Top database filesystems I/O performance
Most frequently executing SQL
Most frequently parsing SQL
Top datafile I/O performance

Containment command library

Streamline tedious containment exercises with commands that automate the sequence of steps that must be taken to achieve containment. Choose a command from the built-in library that covers the most common contributors to database performance degradation.

Remediate:

blocking DDL locks contentions
blocking transactional locks contentions, including cross-RAC node situations
blocking enqueues
accumulation of top CPU-consuming sessions and machines

Eliminate:

sessions and application servers causing full table scans on long tables
long-running transactions
