Most companies face issues regarding DB2 databases. Since DB2 databases allow multiple users to access information at the same time, it slows down after a course of time. The warning bells start ringing for companies only when much damage has been caused. This puts the companies in a lot of trouble. A way out of this situation is now possible with DB2 monitor. It’s an expert in detecting and in responding to database problems. The main feature of this software is that it uses real-time statistics for database analysis and schedules maintenance activity as needed for both online and offline databases.

Another important issue related to DB2 databases is problems related to SQL as this affects the performance of the application. But with performance SQL tuning, this issue can be solved. SQL tuning analyses the SQL performance and increases application performance by pinpointing problem areas thus saving time and money associated with inefficient applications. The notable advantages of SQL tuning are efficient CPU usage, improved response time, reduced I/O activity and reduced resource locking.

Thus DB2 monitor and SQL tuning help not only in managing the database but also in increasing the performance of the application.
