DBI Software

During today's quick 3 minute commercial, DBI demonstrated some performance trend charts that are complete with change indicators plotted on the charts. DBI has been automatically tracking important database change events since V8.2 of DB2. Change events are plotted on trend charts so that you can see the performance consequences of any changes. Trend charts without changes are, at best, merely pretty. Do you want pretty, or do you want clear results?

Working with DBI is like making money magically appear! Typical customers enjoy 40-60% CPU utilization reductions in the first week, plus measurably faster transaction and query response times. More importantly, your time savings will be substantial! Read our newest title="Press Release: DBI and HealthPlan Services celebrate DB2 LUW successes!">SUCCESS STORY with HealthPlan Services, do your target="NEW" title="Learn about the high cost of 'free' tools and do your due diligence">due diligence, and speak with as many references as you have time to call. We saved a health care company $250,000 in one afternoon, solved a performance problem in two hours that two senior DBAs were unable to solve in six months, and we have helped top brand name retailers achieve top ranked e-Commerce performance on Black Friday multiple years in a row. 8 of the Top 25 Retailers, plus others, plus top Banks, State Governments, Manufacturers, Insurers, and more rely on DBI.
