Optimizing Your Database Performance | Embarcadero TechnologiesMichael Findling
In complex enterprise environments standards to keep databases running at peak performance fall short, especially when multiple types of databases are present. Greg Keller, chief evangelist for DatabaseGear Products at Embarcadero Technologies explains why database performance is important to the business, and describes new solutions that keep data environments running at peak performance.
Greg Keller explains that database performance is critical for businesses because slow response times, even if operations don't fail, can negatively impact businesses with high transaction volumes. The most common issue impacting performance is over-utilization. While native database tools help with performance monitoring and issue resolution, they are inconsistent across different database platforms, making it difficult for DBAs managing multiple database types. Profiling technology that visually displays system operations could help DBAs more quickly identify and address performance problems.
Change Manager‘s database comparison, alter, and synchronization capabilities enabled DBA Consulting to generate reports and reconcile differences between the different versions of the databases, tables, schemas, and other database objects.

Performance Optimization: Incorporating Database and Code Optimzitation Into ...Michael Findling
Embarcadero offers database and code optimization tools for application developers, database developers, and database administrators to prevent, find, and fix problems that impact performance throughout the system development lifecycle.
Performance problems are common in mission critical Java and .NET applications running in distributed, heterogeneous environments. Problem resolution takes too much time and resources using current tools. Traditional developer tools like debuggers and profilers do not work in production and do not provide the information needed to diagnose problems across multiple servers. Performance issues can occur anywhere in a transaction's execution path, so simply addressing symptoms does not solve the underlying problem. A new approach is needed to efficiently collect diagnostic data and speed up root cause analysis.

Informatica push down optimization implementationdivjeev
The document discusses a new pushdown optimization option available in Informatica PowerCenter 8 that can improve data integration performance and scalability. It works by generating database-specific logic to represent the overall data flow and pushing the execution of that logic into the database to perform data transformations. This allows taking advantage of database processing power and avoids extracting large amounts of data. The option provides flexibility in controlling where processing takes place and leverages a single design environment. Pushing logic to the database can significantly increase performance by avoiding extracting and reloading large amounts of data.
The document discusses key terminology that is important for job interviews in data centers. It provides definitions and explanations of terms like change management, DevOps, continuous integration and delivery, data center resiliency, parallel processing, and data deduplication. Understanding these concepts demonstrates knowledge of modern data center operations, infrastructure scalability, and how IT supports business needs.

The document discusses challenges with Database Administrator (DBA) staffing and costs. It describes the wide range of tasks DBAs must perform, from routine operational tasks to complex strategic work. However, most organizations spend too much on high-cost DBAs performing simpler tasks and not enough on proactive strategic work. This leads to underutilization of expensive full-time DBAs, risk of outages from lack of prevention, and inability to optimize databases. An optimal solution would match task complexity with appropriate skill levels and costs, but this is difficult to achieve with traditional DBA models.
