4 Unique Monitoring Traits Every DBA Must Know

There are two main activities that keep DBAs busy. One such activity is the one-time (or less frequent) events, like upgrading database versions, patching the latest service packs, or upgrading server resources. The other activity is constant and seemingly continuous, such as managing server performance. There are many tools in the relational database ecosystem that DBAs can use to accomplish their daily monitoring tasks. However, the biggest challenge is that those tools help DBAs in quite differently when monitoring daily tasks. In reality, every tool is unique and has its advantages. Many DBAs are still in pursuit of a single comprehensive tool that can do all the essential tasks.
