Sound familiar?

“The SQL Server was performing great yesterday and all of a sudden today the performance is terrible.”

Foglight Performance Analysis has a very powerful feature that allows you compare two different properties of your SQL Server workload.  This scenarios could be:

• Comparing the performance of a database over two different time ranges. 
• Comparing the performance of a single stored procedure over two different time ranges.
• Comparing the performance of database A to database B over the same time range.
• etc…

Take a look at this short tutorial and see how the feature could help you in your environment!  Any questions, feel free to comment.

Today we went RTM with our latest version of LiteSpeed for SQL Server (5.2) and we’ll be going GA with this at the PASS show in Seattle, WA the week of Nov. 2.

We’re really excited about this release as it beefs up our already strong Fast Compression functionality. Fast Compression further reduces the size of backups by only backing up changed data. This improves backup times and lowers storage requirements by 70% or more over and above your current backup and compression strategy.

Again, we look forward to making it generally available during the PASS show and if you’re headed there, please stop by the booth to say hello and see a demo.  See you there!
