SQL Rx performance evaluations.
John Paul Cook wrote a blog about the greatness SQL Risk and Health Assessment Program (SQLRAP) the other day, which prompted me to write a similar piece about ISI’s SQL Rx practice for performance tuning and server evaluations as an alternative to consider. I’ve seen a “RAP” report before, and for my money a server review by SQL Rx is by far a better and more thorough report. Having worked for ISI for a year, I understand the nuts and bolts of what goes into these evaluations, and comparing the two…there’s really no comparison. While both have a degree of technical insight, the SQL Rx summary is much greater in depth, breadth, and scope, and is an overall more complete picture, going well into the server, disk, cpu, and even the nics.
Contact Lori Brown at SQL Rx for a sample of their report. Either way you would do no wrong, but the folks there put much more effort into these products.
