BEZ Systems Announces Advanced Performance Management Solution for Oracle Market
BEZ Proactive Performance Management solutions provide line of business insight for managing data services
BOSTON, September 12, 2005 - BEZ Systems, the leading provider of Proactive Performance Management (PPM) solutions, today announced immediate availability of BEZProphet™ for Oracle.
BEZProphet is an automated management solution for IT to deliver high performing, uninterrupted, database services to the business. It does this by measuring, managing and predicting resource consumption, performance and throughput by line of business. This helps IT align service delivery with the business units. It empowers them to manage change, set realistic expectations, justify corrective actions and ensure the delivery of consistent, uninterrupted data service to the business at the lowest cost.
“BEZProphet advances the state of Database Performance Management solutions in two major ways: first, it looks at the service delivery by line of business not just measuring infrastructure components, and secondly, it adds the essential future element to allow proactive management,” said Dan Haley, CEO and President of BEZ Systems. “ It also fully protects the investment companies have already made in DBA tools. ”
BEZProphet profiles complex database processing to understand data usage, resource consumption and throughput by line of business. BEZProphet notifies IT of current performance issues and provides a guided process to help identify, analyze and resolve service-level problems quickly. BEZProphet allows IT to forecast future performance resource utilization and throughput, to understand when service levels will be exceeded and throughput levels will degrade to stunt business growth potential.
“We partner with companies to insure their databases deliver for the business”, said Michael Corey, Founder and CEO of Ntirety, author and recognized expert on Relational Databases. “We are watching our customers as they evolve from reacting to down database situations to trying to proactively managing the delivery of data as a service driving their business. BEZProphet’s Proactive Performance Management technology is right-on, well-timed and the perfect compliment to Application Performance Management software.”
BEZProphet is easy to install and uses agentless data collection technology to provide hands-free “set and forget” monitoring to predict future Oracle response time and throughput levels without manual intervention. It automatically notifies IT when a future threat materializes long before the users notice any change in service delivery. BEZProphet can help companies manage the following significant events:
- Application Growth Impacts (both users and data)
- Incorporation of Database Design Advice (understanding long term performance impacts of incorporating schema changes) with direct links to the Oracle10g advisors.
- Hardware Comparisons (Unix vs. Linux comparisons)
- RAC implementation impacts (moving from standalone to RAC environment)
- Extending RAC (impact of adding additional nodes to a RAC implementation)
- Consolidations (server consolidation, license reductions, cost control)
“We knew that some of our critical workloads would be increasing in the next few months, however, we lacked confidence in our ability to support the increased loads. We were determined to not sit back and then react when the service became unacceptable to the business”, said Dick Goulet, Senior Oracle DBA of an OEM power conversion systems manufacturer in New England. “BEZProphet gave us the answers we needed very quickly. It helped us develop a timely plan and readily dismiss several costly options that would not solve the problem.”
