SolarWinds Integrates Database Performance Analyzer Onto Its Orion Technology Backbone
Developers, database, and systems professionals have unified visibility into the role each element of the infrastructure stack has on application performance.
SolarWinds has announced the integration of SolarWinds® Database Performance Analyzer (DPA) onto the SolarWinds Orion® technology backbone. The integration represents a significant milestone that enables stronger collaboration between database and systems administration teams to ensure the performance of business-critical applications by presenting wait time analysis and other key database performance metrics in the context of the application, all within the familiar Orion user interface.
According to a recent application performance management (APM) survey by Gleanster Research, 88% of respondents cited the database as the most common challenge or issue with application performance. Furthermore, 71% said their current APM tools only provide hints, but rarely identify the root cause of problems. This lack of visibility into the impact of database performance on applications is a key barrier to ensuring the availability of business-critical applications and also exacerbates a lack of collaboration between database and systems administrators.
