What WhaTap Database Monitoring is
WhaTap Database Monitoring tracks performance across open-source and cloud databases, with monitoring available for MySQL, Oracle, MSSQL, MariaDB, PostgreSQL, TmaxTibero, Cubrid, EDB, Altibase, Redis, and MongoDB. Performance data is collected every second. Monitoring can work without installing an agent on the database server; the collection agent can be placed to suit the environment. A single screen can show multiple databases, with dashboards in preset or custom formats.
The product provides real-time views of queries and locks, saved-data post-analysis, query profiling, wait and lock analysis, and execution plans. SQL Elapse Map charts query end times for reviewing database status and slow queries. Live Tail and Log Search show logs and event records, while correlation analysis links application, server, and database SQL and logs to help trace causes. Subscription features include email, message, and third-party integrated notifications. The web-based cloud service has a 15-day trial, no free plan, and paid subscriptions from $20/mo. Trial retention is 15 days; subscriptions list one-year retention, with some data excluded.
