SentryOne

What is SentryOne?

Monitor, Diagnose, and Optimize The Entire Microsoft Data Platform

Designed with enterprise-ready scalability, SentryOne allows you to manage performance in your physical, virtual, and cloud-based environments from a common user interface.

What is the SentryOne platform?

SentryOne enables data professionals to consolidate their toolsets, reduce infrastructure costs, and increase database speed and efficiency. The manufacturer provides the confidence to diagnose the root causes of performance issues and optimize your entire server environment, regardless of size or complexity.

The SentryOne platform offers maximum performance

Scalable architecture

Strict engineering adherence to the minimum possible overhead allows us to capture more data points with greater granularity than any other system without becoming the cause of performance issues.

Powerful dashboards

Instantly visualize performance and generate information about a huge amount of servers with ease. Designed to provide contextual relationships between SQL Server and everything that affects performance.

Deep granularity

Intuitive analytics workflows allow you to detail dashboards on specific metrics with minimal effort. Quickly inform areas of concern and use built-in optimization tools to quickly resolve issues.

What makes SentryOne different?

Lowest cost in the industry

We have made great efforts to produce consistent and realistic load tests and to analyze the stresses that monitoring can put on the CPU, memory, network, and I/O while a typical load is running against multiple monitored SQL Server instances.

Intuitive performance dashboards

Performance Dashboards displays information from multiple sources. See exactly what's happening at the moment, or switch to historical mode and see exactly what was happening at any time in the past. Easily exit to Top SQL, the event calendar, disk space, and more to determine exactly what was happening when you experienced problems.

Seamless integration

The SentryOne client is the central application for managing server performance. Access your entire environment from a common user interface with consistent features and functionality. Easily switch between performance dashboards, event calendars, and query tuning without switching applications. A central monitoring service gathers data from all environments, minimizing potential overhead and providing easy administration.

Extreme scalability

Monitor physical, virtual, and cloud targets for full visibility from a single operating platform.

If you are running a single SQL Server, have hundreds of servers running in a virtual environment, or have databases or data warehouses in the cloud, SentryOne can scale to support your entire infrastructure.

Actionable reports

The SentryOne platform offers extensive performance reports. Built-in pre-formatted reports let you easily view and share information and provide easy-to-understand and actionable information. Use the built-in SentryOne client reports or publish to your Microsoft SQL Server Reporting Services (SSRS) server to share across your organization.

Connect and view data from prebuilt Power BI dashboards and reports that are updated continuously and automatically. Or sync your data with the cloud-based service on cloud.sentryone.com and schedule reports for automatic delivery to anyone.

Customizable alert

The built-in alert provides customizable and flexible definition of conditions and response actions. If you want to send individual alerts or notify groups of people, custom alerts are easy to set up.

The Advanced Conditions office allows you to create alerts specific to your own monitored environment, using values and metrics retrieved from various sources and subsystems. Easily create enhanced performance alerts and change detection through Query Conditions.

Data access with cloud-based and secure performance

View performance data for any device, including phones and tablets. The Cloud.sentryone.com allows you to access your performance data from anywhere with many of the same great features found in the SentryOne client. This includes display dashboards and performance reports, plus the innovative Health Server Status View, which provides an instant picture of the health of your entire environment.

All supported by world-class support
