What is a
Database Health Check?

A database assessment, also referred to as a health check, entails conducting a comprehensive review of your database environment to identify any potential issues or irregularities that could adversely affect its performance or result in a system outage. Furthermore, it serves to establish a baseline for future system comparisons and can be utilized as a blueprint for migrating to new hardware or transitioning to the cloud.

Performance One’s database assessment team conducts thorough evaluations and provides recommendations for optimization, storage, and overall database improvements.

When Should You Check the Health of Your Database?

Database assessments should ideally be carried out proactively rather than reactively in response to issues. However, if you are experiencing server issues, downtime, or data loss, it is time for a database assessment. Some indicators of database health issues are:

  • Overall Poor Performance
  • Long-running queries
  • Outages or frequent error messages
  • Applications crashing or running at slow speeds
