Microsoft SQL Server monitoring tools for optimized performance
Have visibility and control over your MS SQL database environment
Monitor and optimize queries for your Microsoft SQL databases
Don’t let a bad query disrupt your database server. SolarWinds® SQL Sentry® is an MS SQL Server monitoring tool that helps uncover the root cause of slowdowns, allowing you to fine-tune poorly written queries or those with extensive response times.
With intelligent monitoring and optimization capabilities such as Top SQL and Deadlock Analysis, you can capture, analyze, and identify data to help you determine what’s causing query performance issues and deadlocks.
Self-Hosted SQL Server Monitoring
Deploy on-premises, in the cloud, or hybrid to give your infrastructure greater flexibility and scalability. SQL Sentry helps you monitor your entire data platform stack, ensuring comprehensive oversight of your database environment. This includes monitoring for Azure SQL Database, VMware, and more, enabling you to grow with changing needs efficiently.
Identify costly issues with detailed performance monitoring
Want to quickly identify SQL Server performance issues and tune queries to function at their peak? You need a performance monitoring tool that can provide you with a holistic, detailed overview of your data estate.
SQL Sentry gives you insight into real-time and historical performance data, such as Windows OS network utilization, system memory, and more. All this information is displayed on a user-friendly dashboard with options for customizing to view the metrics you need.
Improve observability into your SQL Server health
Achieve better server health through better MS SQL Server performance monitoring. SQL Sentry features such as Environment Health Overview provide a health status based on metrics such as frequency and severity of events. Predictive analytics allow you to anticipate future needs and address potential conflicts before they become major issues. A comprehensive view of your database health will help you proactively troubleshoot issues while optimizing performance.
Review actionable metrics using an all-in-one unified dashboard
The dashboard of SQL Sentry makes it easy to deep dive into an array of database environment performance metrics. You can monitor current activity using a single dashboard display, compare it to historical data, locate blocked processes, and even check write latency.
With convenient access to detailed metrics, you can streamline your troubleshooting process and transform how you approach improving system performance.

Do you find yourself asking...
SQL Server monitoring, a key part of database monitoring, is the continuous collection and analysis of usage, performance (like CPU utilization), and event metrics (like authentication attempts) for Microsoft SQL Server. It’s the first step in optimizing performance—from slow stored procedures to hardware constraints—for applications dependent on your data platform.
Highly effective monitoring gives a bird’s-eye view across your data estate, offering far more depth than basic tools like the activity monitor found in SQL Server Management Studio. It also provides the deep analytics necessary to perform root cause analysis on the most challenging performance bottlenecks.
Baselines and historical data help measure and highlight performance trends. A comprehensive monitoring solution will also include extensive options for proactive alerting and automation for remediation of familiar performance problems.
The most beneficial performance monitoring delivers the means to measure and improve SQL Server performance in one unified solution.
