Splunk Database Monitoring

HOW IT WORKS

Database Monitoring provides deep insights into query performance

Identify performance bottlenecks

Find the slowest and most resource intensive queries to proactively optimize database performance before it impacts your applications and users.

Troubleshoot with execution plans

Analyze execution plans to see how your database engine executes a SQL query to pinpoint the costliest operations and optimize for better performance.

Correlate with application

Correlated database performance metrics with application traces help you see which application services or endpoints execute slow queries.​ Use infrastructure metrics to understand if the database host is experiencing CPU saturation, memory pressure, or disk I/O bottlenecks.​

Fix faster with AI

Use generative AI recommendations to understand and rewrite complex SQL queries for optimal performance and an improved recommendation plan.
