Project Lucy–Upload a SQL trace file to the cloud, get it analyzed

I got an email the other day from Kevin Kline about a new project that he and Quest Software are involved in – a new idea named “Project Lucy”. Here’s the skinny:

“…we (Quest) have developed a really cool cloud-based performance analysis tool currently called Project Lucy (PL). Check it out at http://www.projectlucy.com.  In a nutshell, you simply upload a good ol’ trace file and PL will analyse the file and tell you if there are any major problems, such as can be found in the plan cache, recompiles, excessive CPU consumption, sort warnings, etc.  On top of that, PL leverages crowdsourcing by telling you how your trace compares to similar workloads.  Your data is anonymous and your contact info is not used for any sort of marketing or outreach”

I haven’t tried it out yet, so I’m not going to comment on its worth. Check it out and let me know, and maybe I’ll find a trace file today to upload.

Thanks for visiting,
Lee
