With SQL Sentry, you can correlate and track Windows performance metrics and processes, grouping by applications such as SharePoint, Internet Information Services (IIS), SQL Server Reporting Services (SSRS), and SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS).
SQL Sentry provides OS insight around disk latencies, disk space, and core resource utilization. The Hyper-V host dashboard allows you to see how resources are being allocated and utilized by virtual machines and
SQL Sentry empowers you to troubleshoot SQL Server performance problems with confidence by providing full visibility into your entire database environment, including Windows.
Are you able to quickly determine whether a performance bottleneck is in your application versus in your database? SQL Sentry gives you that visibility for both application servers and Hyper-V hosts.
The dashboard provides a per-VM breakdown of resource utilization, helping you find the “noisy neighbor” that could be causing performance issues.
Allows you to identify which OS processes are consuming resources at any time, and automatically groups common processes into their application groups, such as SQL Server, IIS, and server host.
View application performance over multiple servers from a common baseline, to easily identify when systems deviate from normal behavior.
SQL Sentry provides pre-defined Advisory Conditions (Advisory Conditions Pack) to get you started, but the Advisory Conditions interface allows you to build new conditions for virtually anything you can imagine, from a single query to test the status of your in-house application to complex tests involving conditional logic and multiple Advisory Conditions.
