When the Intern Deletes the Entire Database
We’ve all been the rookie, the greenhorn, the junior in the office. Some of us may have stumbled through minor blunders, but few can claim their mistakes shut down entire systems or wiped clean a whole database. Such extreme cases, we will be focusing on today, demonstrating the fragile boundary that exists in the digital environments of modern corporations. Let’s see what happens when the intern deletes the entire database.

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.

The Toughest Performance Challenges of SQL Server
SQL Server has a stellar reputation among the suits in the boardroom—lauded for its architecture and the ability to juggle massive datasets with the grace of someone who can juggle quite well. Yet, those who actually wrestle with the data, know a different story. They understand that SQL Server, like any towering giant, has its own set of quirks and foibles that can keep database professionals on their toes. Welcome to the performance challenges of SQL Server.

That’s How Effective Query Monitoring Can Prevent Locks
In the complex ecosystem of SQL Server, performance issues can sometimes feel like detective work, especially when tracking down the elusive culprits behind system locks. This time, we’re exploring how ineffective queries (and poorly executed query monitoring) can grind operations to a halt, and how to identify the “how” and “why” behind the halt.
From scrutinizing load trends to dissecting lock histories and refining execution plans, we’re making sure that no stone—or should we say, no data block—remains unturned in our quest to keep SQL Server zipping along like a sports car rather than trudging like a pack mule.

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
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.

The Nightmare of Database Deadlocks
A database deadlock occurs when two or more transactions in a database system hold locks on resources the others need. Each transaction waits for the others to release their locks, and just like two drivers who are not sure who has the right of way, none can proceed.
It would be lovely to be able to enumerate the causes of a database deadlock and address all of them. Sadly, it’s way too complex. It can be said, though, that a database deadlock is most likely to stem from poor application design, lack of proper transaction management, or the inevitable complexity of highly concurrent systems.
