DBI Software

During today's quick commercial, DBI demonstrated some customer favorite features of DBI's Brother-Panther. We used a trend chart to find spikes in transaction processing costs, drilled into the SQL behind the spikes, Explained the SQL, got index advice, and then used DBI's Predictive Index Impact Analysis to understand the implications of creating indexes. All in about two minutes. #Awesome.

Magic Hat Money Working with DBI is like making money magically appear!

Typical customers enjoy 40-60% CPU utilization reductions in the first week, plus measurably faster transaction and query response times. More importantly, your time savings will be substantial! Read our newest SUCCESS STORY with HealthPlan Services, do your due diligence, and speak with as many references as you have time to call.

We saved a health care company $250,000 in one afternoon, solved a performance problem in two hours that two senior DBAs were unable to solve in six months, and we have helped top brand name retailers achieve top ranked e-Commerce performance on Black Friday multiple years in a row. 8 of the Top 25 Retailers, plus others, plus top Banks, State Governments, Manufacturers, Insurers, and more rely on DBI.
