RE: Opinions on Performance Tuning Software
Well yeah it has to be one of the two   -   OEM or Savant Diagnostics.



We're an Oracle as well as Precise/Savant (www.savant.com) distributor : =
)=20



Thanks for the input though Mark! I guess we both a bit biased eh?









  Does it have to be one of the two? :) Take a look at the NORAD range =
of tools from Bradmark (Cool Tools is a distributor in the UK). The =
management tool that we have, DBControl, is easy to use, set up and =
maintain. Intuitive and all the other sales buzz words you can think of. =
They have just released a new version which is 8i compatible, and deals =
with LMTs, IOTs, Bitmapped indexes etc. They have added in partition =
management aswell.. Trend analysis, reorgs, blah blah blah...



  Having used DBControl against OEM, I personally feel that DBControl =
wins hands down, as do most people (85-90%). I can't speak about Savant =
Diagnostics though as I haven't had a chance to play with that one as =
yet. Anyone got a web address, and can you download from the web?=20



  If you are also looking at performance monitoring tools, we have =
another module called Norad Surveillance. Again, just been updated, now =
works on SQLServer as well as Oracle and Sybase. Also now 8i compatible =
(and runs on LINUX).=20



  Read more at Bradmark's site if you wish www.bradmark.com=20



  Regards

    Thanks for the feedback everyone!



    I have to agree with Mark with regards to hey why not use a tool =
that's going to save you time?


    I also agree with his suggestion of Precise SQL to be used as an SQL =
statement tuning tool.



    How about a DB Management tool? e.g. Oracle Enterprise =
Manager/Performance Pack or Savant


    Diagnostics? Which do you think is the better of the two? Anyone?
