Database Security in the Era of IoT and Edge Computing

Every refrigerator, smartwatch, or industrial sensor that connects to the internet streamlines our lives, Yes, that’s true. However, by doing so, they also add to the growing pile of concerns in regard to database security. As we integrate more devices and decentralize data processing, the potential for breaches expands exponentially. This seismic shift demands a reimagined approach to security. One that transcends conventional methods and addresses the issues of protecting data. Even among the expanse of IoT devices and edge nodes.

What is ACID When it Comes to Databases?

17/10/2024

Through Data Reliability: What is ACID When it Comes to Databases?

What is ACID when it comes to databases? Atomicity, Consistency, Isolation, and Durability are the pillars that keep database transactions from descending into chaos. These properties form the foundation of reliable database systems, ensuring that every operation follows the rules. That’s how we can handle every failure with precision, and leave no transaction incomplete or in a corrupt state. Without them, the data world would be a mess of half-executed actions, inconsistent records, and data loss that could bring even the simplest system to its knees.

Oracle vs SQL Server

Oracle vs SQL Server: Which One Wins for Your Business?

Oracle vs SQL Server—two goliaths clashing over the supremacy of database management. These platforms emanate from the venerable houses of Oracle Corporation and Microsoft, respectively. They have evolved through decades, consistently pushed by the relentless pursuit of excellence and the demands of a data-driven world. This ongoing battle shaped their capabilities and influenced a great part of the technological choices of organizations around the globe.

We will get into their origins, architecture, and the nuances that dictate their adoption in various enterprise contexts.

Cybersecurity Mesh Architecture

03/10/2024

Cybersecurity Mesh Architecture and Its Significance at the End of 2024

The concept of the Cybersecurity Mesh Architecture, listed by Gartner as one of the most significant security trends in 2021, 2022, and 2023, conveys a transformational change in how we would fortify our digital frontiers. But what exactly is it about the specifics of CSMA that truly makes them so important in the context of prevailing in our current cybersecurity climate? How are they different from typical security models? What exact benefits does their implementation deliver to contemporary firms wrestling with continuously shifting cyber risks?

Locks by Application Issues

23/05/2024

The Story of Locks by Application Issues

On the 20th of April, query load times usually ranged from 12 to 15 seconds per snapshot, but there was a notable spike exceeding 2,000 seconds during certain periods. This anomaly suggested a deeper issue, prompting a detailed investigation. By examining the correlation between locks and application issues, executions, disk reads, and buffer writes, a significant overlap was found between increased query durations and intensified locking issues. Accessing the lock history tab provided detailed data on each lock event, including the time, duration, and specific database elements affected.

speed up a database read query

How can you speed up database read queries

Before getting into the technicalities of speeding up your database read queries, the first step is always to have a clear understanding of what exactly you need. This might sound straightforward, but inefficient queries often begin with uncertainty about the data requirements. Knowing exactly what information is necessary for your application or analysis not only helps in crafting precise queries but also prevents the database from retrieving extraneous information, which can significantly slow down performance.

Data Observability

25/04/2024

Data Observability

Too often when looking at the data we see just numbers – columns and rows that might seem meaningful on the surface but lack depth without proper context. Data observability changes this perspective. This approach is about understanding what the numbers really tell us about the health, accuracy, and vitality of our data systems.

Data observability isn’t just one thing – it’s an ability, or rather a way of monitoring your data’s health, accuracy, and overall usefulness. It’s what equips data teams with the essential tools they need in order to make sure that the data that’s driving business decisions is not only there but also high-quality, well-structured, and up-to-date. 

Database Activity Monitoring

18/04/2024

How Busy Was the Database Today? – Database Activity Monitoring Done Right

Trying to gauge the workload of a database on any given day can pose quite a challenge. A straightforward question supported by basic Database Activity Monitoring might not yield an insightful answer if it’s stripped of context, cluttered with arbitrary numbers, and missing crucial details.

So, what’s the right way to address this query?

The Easy Way and the Hard Way to Optimize an Oracle Database

11/04/2024

The Easy Way and the Hard Way to Optimize an Oracle Database

It may seem that the companies entangled in the web of Oracle and its ecosystem have a limited set of options when it comes to performance tuning. It’s either – pay for extra functionalities and navigate Oracle’s complex licensing, risking non-compliance penalties. This often leads to a conservative approach to optimization, stifling innovation due to the fear of overstepping licensing terms.

But do we always have to go the hard way? 

There’s a much simpler route that doesn’t involve trembling with fear of clicking the wrong thing. That’s what we will be talking about today.

Performance Monitor Changes in Version 2024.2—Part I: Online Monitor

Statistics can lie—” The only statistics you can trust are those you falsified yourself” This old adage attributed to Sir Winston Churchill rings especially true if you’re dealing with daily database monitoring. When data is only captured in 15-minute intervals, transient issues that can severely impact performance might slip through the cracks, unnoticed and unaddressed until they’ve already caused significant problems.

In the newest release of the DBPLUS PERFORMANCE MONITOR, we’re extremely excited to show you the solution that the new functionality brings to the table.
