Keep your database strong, even when upgrading or changing platforms. Learn how you can achieve peak performance with a professional database health check.

The majority of Progress OpenEdge databases house critical application data. Instability or performance issues can result in unplanned downtime or issues that affect your company’s ability to operate or meet goals and objectives. For businesses standing up new environments, ensuring that you are building on a solid foundation will prevent future issues from occurring. 

Database health checks are also imperative when upgrading your OpenEdge application or if you are changing platforms. Our Database Health Check service helps to ensure that your database systems are stable, reliable and maximize the value they already provide to your business.  In the case of upgrades, database health checks will ensure that you are utilizing all of the new tuning and performance parameters that may have been added as part of the migration.

How the Database Health Check Works

During our database health checks, lightweight monitoring is turned on for your system to collect performance statistics. Once compiled, the operating environment is reviewed, and the performance metrics are analyzed. A Senior Database Administrator then writes a comprehensive report with value-based recommendations. 

The database health check process is intended to educate our customers about their system and ensure they are maximizing its possibilities. Our health checks ensure that your company’s database systems are stable, reliable and running at peak performance. 

We’ll Keep You at Peak Performance

Whether you are experiencing performance issues, upgrading your OpenEdge application or changing platforms, our Senior Database Administrators are available to implement any or all of the recommendations resulting from a database health check. The Progress Professional Services Team performs over 100 database health checks annually.

Make sure that your OpenEdge application is running at peak performance. Learn more about the health check process here, or contact an Account Manager from our Professional Services Team for additional information or to schedule your database health check today.
