It's About Time...
Will it be minutes, seconds, or a sub-second response you want your end users to experience? Do you want to defer or eliminate the vicious cost cycle of upgrading hardware to "fix" those scalability issues, CPU saturation issues, etc.? How about finally bringing in a consultant that "gets it" and delivers real business value?

Performance Solutions...Real Performance...It’s About Time!

Anyone who uses relational database products knows that poor performance can be an on-going problem. Slow-running and sub-optimal queries have many negative impacts including increased CPU usage, unhappy end users, and lost revenue opportunities.

If your organization is typical then you likely have multiple SQL queries that are chewing up resources and causing performance degradation. Even worse, they are costing you money! When SQL consumes more resources than needed it can quickly run up costs into the millions of dollars due to hardware upgrades, software license fees, and lost business.

But what can be done? DPOP™! That’s what!

DPOP can reduce costs and increase profits by slashing hardware usage up to 80% to 90%...and deferred (or eliminated) hardware purchases can accrue great savings to the bottom line.

DPOP will completely change the end user experience by slashing transaction runtimes by up to 80% to 90%.

DPOP provides a field-tested, practical methodology for optimizing database performance by focusing on SQL queries. By using DPOP practices to identify and optimize your most important SQL in a disciplined, procedural manner your database applications will enjoy dramatic and immediate improvements.

DPOP can be implemented such that we mentor your staff in the DPOP approach and skillset to help establish a true performance discipline at your site.

We've been getting great feedback about our free of charge Tuning Session where we actually tune some of your critical queries.  This way, we aren't just talking about the impact of DPOP...we are doing it.  Plus, your company gets some tuning at no charge and gets to test drive DPOP.
