"How to transform DB tuning into a rewarding effort", with Josh Patterson

We're happy to announce another session of the Online ColdFusion Meetup, ""How to transform DB tuning into a rewarding effort", with Josh Patterson, to be held Thursday June 18 at 12pm US Eastern Time, UTC-5. Look for more CF-specific developer-presented sessions in weeks to come.

TOPIC DESCRIPTION: (provided by the speaker)

Poor database performance can cost you customers, and when it’s happening that’s not the best time to be making decisions about how to monitor and tune things. Better to consider options in advance, and even proactively tune things if possible. Tuning might also allow you to reduce overly-scaled out instances, reducing DB licensing and/or server costs.

In this session, join Josh Patterson who will show you Vroom Performance Suite, a db monitoring tool built by performance engineers for performance engineers. It offers substantial performance information both in real-time and based on historical snapshots. And who wants to be watching a monitor all day? So it also offers real-time alerts. And when it comes time to dig in, it offers help with tracking and assessing db indexing, analysis of expensive queries, and execution plan insights. Hopefully it will also offer you better sleep at night.
