New Version Of Db Maint Facilitates Performance Monitoring

LAN Assistans & Konsulting AB today announced the release of Db Maint 3.0, a maintenance program for SQL Server. New features in version 3.0 of Db Maint, which will be available from October, include support for MS SQL Server 2000 and vastly improved performance monitoring capabilities. Db Maint maintains, preserves and monitors Microsoft SQL Server installations and its data.

Db Maint is an administration program for maintenance of Microsoft’s database management system SQL Server. The software contains several functions which significantly facilitate administration and improve performance of MS SQL Server 6.5, 7.0 and 2000, e.g. safer and easier backup, continuous reports on the conditions of the databases, advanced logging and presentation, monitoring of performance counters, and analyses and documentation of the SQL Server installation, including databases.

The new Db Maint 3.0 contains several new features, e.g. support for MS SQL Server 2000, major user interface enhancements, alert on performance counters, and greatly improved and generalized performance monitoring of any NT server (even non-SQL servers).

Db Maint 3.0, which is available from October the 1st, also includes enhanced support for Microsofts database engine MSDE, which opens up new markets for Db Maint, especially in the OEM field. Software developers can now use the functionality in Db Maint to add e.g. backup and maintenance routines to their MSDE based applications, and thereby save a considerable amount of development time and costs.

Db Maint is developed LAN Assistans & Konsulting AB, and distributed by Data Construction AB. The software is primarily used by third-party developers and in small to medium-sized installations without access to in-house SQL Server expertise. Db Maint has received excellent reviews and is described as ”easy-to-use, effective and inexpensive” by the prestigious SQL Server Magazine.
