Webcast #3: “Make a Power Play with Performance Testing”

To achieve true excellence in database performance, you can’t just look at past or present activity. You must also anticipate what performance problems might trip you up in the future.

• Can the database handle more users?
• How scalable is my SQL and PL/SQL?
• How will new hardware impact database performance?
• Will I gain anything by upgrading to a new database release?

Fortunately, many of the tools and techniques needed to master your current environment can also be used to predict and pre-empt future problems. In this webcast, we discussed how to make this power play and skate around looming performance problems.
