In today's data-driven world, databases are the backbone of many applications. Effective database monitoring is crucial for ensuring data integrity, performance, and availability.


Why Database Monitoring Matters

Database monitoring helps you:

  • Identify Performance Issues: Detect slow queries and optimize them for better performance.
  • Ensure Availability: Monitor uptime and quickly address any downtime issues.
  • Optimize Resource Usage: Track CPU, memory, and disk usage to ensure efficient resource allocation.
