SQL Sentry Partners with DBSophic: 'Power Suite + Qure Quick Start Pack' Announced

CHARLOTTE, N.C., April 7, 2011 — SQL Sentry, Inc., the developer of award-winning software for Microsoft SQL Server, and DBSophic, an innovative provider of performance management products for database-centric applications, announced a new product bundle to help SQL Server DBAs monitor, manage, troubleshoot and tune database server performance. The "Power Suite + Qure Quick Start Pack" will be officially unveiled at the SQLBits 8 Conference in Brighton, UK.

The Power Suite + Qure Quick Start Pack will contain licenses to monitor five instances of SQL Server with SQL Sentry Power Suite and perform five in-depth performance optimizations using a special edition of Qure. The combined pack is offered at a substantial discount over purchasing the two products separately.

Power Suite provides a complete performance monitoring and optimization solution for Microsoft SQL Server by combining both Performance Advisor for SQL Server and Event Manager. The special edition of Qure, the leading workload tuning solution, automatically analyzes the query data collected by SQL Sentry and generates recommendations for optimizing database performance.

"We are thrilled to work with the DBSophic team and tightly integrate their widely respected Qure product with our Power Suite," said Greg Gonzalez, President and CEO of SQL Sentry. "Our goal continues to be providing the best performance tools for Microsoft SQL Server, and adding Qure's automated performance recommendations is a major win for our customers."

Ami Levin, DBSophic's CTO and SQL Server MVP, explains: "SQL Sentry has redefined the SQL Server Monitoring marketplace, and their efforts to provide busy DBAs with efficient performance insight and query analysis dovetails well with our success in providing accurately measured and verified performance recommendations. Leveraging the in-depth query data collected by SQL Sentry, Qure turns the art of database performance optimization into a straightforward automatic procedure."
