Database Performance Challenges

Without proper database monitoring, teams struggle with these critical performance bottlenecks:

Slow Database Queries

Applications timing out due to slow database queries, but no visibility into which queries are causing the problem.

"As a database administrator, our app is slow and I suspect it's the database, but I can't identify which queries are the bottleneck."

Database Downtime

Database crashes or becomes unresponsive without warning, causing complete application outages and data loss risks.

"As a platform engineer, our database went down at 2 AM on a Saturday, and we lost $100K in revenue before we could restore it."

No Query Optimization Insights

Queries running inefficiently but no recommendations on indexes, query rewrites, or schema optimizations to improve performance.

"As a backend developer, I know my queries are slow, but I don't know if I need indexes, better joins, or query rewrites."

Replication Lag Issues

Read replicas falling behind primary database, causing stale data and inconsistencies in the application.

"As an architect, our read replicas lag behind by minutes, causing users to see outdated data and breaking our eventual consistency model."

Connection Pool Exhaustion

Application unable to get database connections during peak traffic, leading to failed requests and poor user experience.

"As a DevOps engineer, during high traffic, our connection pool maxes out and new requests fail. We need better connection management."

Lack of Database Performance History

No historical database performance data to identify trends, plan capacity, or compare performance before and after schema changes.

"As a database architect, I need to prove that our schema migration improved performance, but we have no baseline metrics from before the change."

Detect Database Deadlocks With Full Context

Automatically capture deadlock events with complete metadata including database, host, tables, victim process, and survivor process. Get the exact information needed to understand when and where contention occurs.

Deadlock event list

Inspect Real Query Samples With Execution Data

View real query samples with execution time, database, host, user, and wait event classification. Quickly filter and drill into queries that matter most.

Query metrics

Understand How Queries Execute Under the Hood

Analyze query execution plans to see joins, scans, and expensive operations. Identify high-cost nodes and inefficient paths that impact performance before they become production issues.

Track Query Performance Over Time

Monitor query volume and average execution duration to understand workload behavior. Spot spikes, regressions, and performance anomalies across databases and time ranges.

Query explains

Visualize Deadlocks and Understand Lock Dependencies

Interactive deadlock maps clearly show which processes are waiting, which locks are held, and how resources are contended. Quickly identify the victim path and dependency chain without reading raw logs.

Read customer stories

"Atatus is very modern app that allows us to monitor our application performances", it's interface and the way it reports data is easy to understand. I hope it will have more information for what caused the error, like a funnel.
