Noninvasive Database Monitoring Technology
SATS Cerberus monitoring agent is an intelligent application, that unlike most of other products is not
CPU or I/O intensive. It consumes negligible resources, and does not create additional
objects in your database. It continuously gathers and analyzes exhaustive monitoring data,
and parses it for errors and behavioral trends indicative of your database performance.
This technology allows to forecast many latent performance problems, so we can prevent them
from developing. In addition, it delivers comprehensive problem/action reports,
up-to-the-minute performance data, alert logs, and statistical analysis.

All services use the same proven operational practices, noninvasive technology, and
customizable notification system. The difference is in the extent of the coverage, and in
the distribution of DBA tasks between SATS and your in-house teams.

Typically each account is assigned a team of three DBAs. One of the assigned
DBAs is an Account Manager and the other two are the supporting team. Each group member
has at least two areas of expertise - major and minor area of expertise. Depending on
the project needs we can create a blended teams to achieve the best results.
For example first team member is an Oracle expert and has a MySql as a secondary skill set.
The second group member has a MS SQL Server as a major and Windows O/S administration as a minor field.
The third one is a Unix System Admin with the Oracle experience. |
