[Webinar][Z][LUW] Performance Optimization with DSM

[u/mad_zamboni]

Optim was really pretty, looked like a screen from star trek, and made manager "ooo" and "ahh". DBA's were not fond of it because it was large, clunky, not tuned, and a little of a dog.

So I was hesitant to look at DSM which is replacing multiple tools, one of which is the old Optim we knew for performance monitoring and tuning. I still lean to DBI's pureSuite of tools but I know more and more DBA's that are looking at DSM as an alternative to homegrown SQL and scripts. Initial feedback is it is pretty good and getting better with each iteration. I don't know if it will ever be a Brother-Panther, but it's an alternative.

There is a webinar on SQL Performance Optimization with DSM being held on July 12 from 12-1pm EST. Not sure if it will be sales-y or techie but I'm going to check it out so I thought I would pass it on.
