Behind Every Application is a Database!

The Importance of Databases

Database Technology Trends

NoSQL databases like MongoDB account for < 1%.

Oracle databases are used 38% of the time for critical

functions.



Almost an equal share of physical and virtual servers. Cloud deployments starting.



Future Oracle deployments will be virtualized. Cloud

deployments will also increase.


Disk reads

Streaming Media AppSlow Database Queries

Virtualization Introduces New Dependencies, New Challenges

Excessive disk reads by the media server slow down Oracle database accesses

Virtual infrastructures are hard to manage. Traditional monitoring tools are not designed to handle these dynamic environments.


Oracle Database Monitoring Today

Primarily using Oracle Enterprise Manager


Oracle Database Monitoring Challenges

OEM mainly an expert’s tool. Experts spend too much time in troubleshooting routine issues.

OEM mainly provides visibility into the database tier. Databases run on virtual platforms, use storage –slowness here impacts database performance.

How applications use the database can impact the performance of the database. Application slowness is always blamed on the database tier!

Correlating Database Performance


Monitoring Oracle Database Servers

Availability

• Instance status• Listener status

Space Usage

• Database space • Tablespace usage• Archive area• Dump area• Large tables

Workload

• Top queries by CPU used• Top queries by phy reads• Top queries by elapsed

time• Top queries by buffer gets

Memory

• Library cache hit ratio• Dictionary cache hit

ratio• Buffer cache hit ratio• Locks

Optimization

• Redo log buffers• Sorts on disk• Large table scans• Datafiles by I/O• Index fragmentation

Sessions

• Active sessions• User logons/logouts• Calls/sec, Trans/sec• Root-blockers• Processes by state


eG Enterprise for Oracle Monitoring

Monitoring made Easy

Quick to diagnose

Correlated views for root-cause diagnosis

Actionable insights

Not just for experts

Best practices built-in


Oracle Database Instance Model

Oracle Database Instance On Windows

Oracle Database Instance On Unix

Manage Oracle Instances in a consistent manner across operating systems


Oracle Database Performance

There is a critical tablespacealert.

There is no space in the tablespace.


Multi-Level Thresholds

The dashed lines indicate 3 levels of thresholds – Minor, Major & Critical. This allows for alarm escalation should

the problem severity increase.


Tracking Configuration Changes

There has been a recent change in datafile

configuration.

There has been a change in the size of the datafile –

from 500MB to 20MB (someone made a

mistake!)


Analyzing Current Configuration


Comparing Database Configurations


Identify Hot Data Files


Monitoring Database User Connections


Auto-Baselining of Metrics

Automatic baselines determined by the monitoring

system. The baselines vary based on time of day.


Detecting Long Running Queries

There is one long running query on the database server.


Detecting Long Running Queries

The long running query


Detecting the Need for Reindexing

Indicates the need to recreate a table’s index


Detecting the Need for Reindexing


Managing Other Databases

A Microsoft SQL Server


Detecting Blocking Queries

There is a process blocking everyone else – i.e., root-

blocker.


Detecting Blocking Queries

Query being executed by the root-blocker


Advantages of eG Enterprise

Consistent way of managing different database servers

Don’t need experts to use the tool

Learning curve is short

Single paradigm across all tiers/platforms

Correlation rules automatically built-in

No need to build complex if/then/else rules

Focus on the cause, don’t be distracted by effects
