audit, diagnosis, tuning and coaching on SQL Server

Remote SQL Server audit

You run a read-only collector against your instance, you send me the archive, I send back a full report and walk you through it over a call. No agent, no access to your network, no application data read. The collector is free software, and your DBA can review it before authorising anything.

€2,500 excluding VAT for one instance, five working days, walkthrough included.

The offer in detail

What an audit finds

Three real audits, anonymised, with the measurements taken: one query accounting on its own for 7.8 % of a server’s CPU, a new engine feature that addresses 2.5 % of the blocking it was credited with, and an instance paid for in 2022 running the 2016 optimizer.
