Resolve database performance issues before they impact your users

With so much on your plate these days—from huge data volumes and multiple database platforms to DevOps and the cloud—cross-platform database monitoring is imperative. Database downtime and performance degradation are issues you can’t afford.

Foglight database monitoring and observability software allows you to proactively improve database performance and increase visibility by monitoring all your diverse databases centrally, through a single console. With alerting, diagnostics, performance analytics and more, you’ll easily optimize database health – across your entire environment.

Foglight vs. application performance monitoring tools

Foglight can greatly extend the breadth and depth of the database monitoring capabilities provided by your application performance monitoring (APM) tools. There’s no need to rip and replace your existing APM tools as Foglight can be integrated to them. Foglight adds the ability to view the granular information you need to identify, remediate and proactively tune the performance of a wide range of database platforms.
  • Integrates and extends the capabilities of APM tools
  • Supports a wide range of on-premises, cloud and hybrid database platforms

Foglight vs. single-silo database performance tools

There are many database performance tools that only monitor one type of database platform. They focus exclusively on monitoring only Oracle, or only SQL Server or only some other platform. Foglight can unify the monitoring of over a dozen different popular platforms in a single interface which is especially important for reducing staff learning curves and supporting applications and environments that span multiple database platforms. In addition, Foglight has a customizable web-based interface and can be deployed across multiple domains and across multiple geographically dispersed data centers.
  • Monitors and observes a wide range of database platforms
  • Customize the dashboards, views and roles for your unique needs
  • Deploy across multiple domains and multi-geo data centers

Foglight vs. cloud diagnostic tools

Most cloud vendors provide light-weight database monitoring capabilities. These tools typically don’t enable you to truly find and fix the root causes of database performance issues. Without a better alternative, you may end up trying to offset performance issues by throwing more resources, memory, CPU power or storage at the problem, which raises your cloud costs. Foglight provides the in-depth diagnostic capabilities you need to identify issues and optimize performance in the cloud without increasing your spend. Foglight unifies the monitoring of environments from multiple cloud providers into a single user interface and provides a rich history of metrics you can dive into to resolve issues and fine-tune the performance of your cloud databases.
  • Advanced metrics for identifying root causes of performance issues
  • Powerful database workload analytics for optimization
  • Monitors and observes databases in a wide range of cloud platforms
