Oracle DBA Challenges

The Problem

Oracle DBAs face critical daily challenges that impact performance and availability:

AWR gaps of 15 minutes

AWR snapshots only capture 15-minute intervals, missing performance spikes and critical intermittent issues

Reactive diagnosis

When problems are detected, users are already impacted and context is lost in dynamic views

Slow lock analysis

Identifying lock chains and blockers requires multiple queries on V$LOCK, V$SESSION, and V$LOCKED_OBJECT

Limited ASH retention

V$ACTIVE_SESSION_HISTORY retains only ~1 hour of data, insufficient for recurring issue analysis

Fragmented tools

Oracle EM, TOAD, SQL Developer - multiple tools without unified performance view

Diagnostic Pack cost

Access to AWR and ASH requires additional Oracle Diagnostic Pack licensing

LAB256: The Oracle Solution

A unified platform that collects, stores, and visualizes every second of your Oracle Database activity:

1-second monitoring

High-frequency collection vs 15-minute AWR snapshots

60-day Forensic Mode

Time travel and analyze any historical moment with second precision

Zero agents

Direct JDBC connection - install nothing on the Oracle server

Instant interface

Responsive UI with zero perceptible latency transitions

Optimized for Oracle

Native V$ and DBA_HIST_* views without depending on Diagnostic Pack

100% local data

Local DuckDB storage - your data never leaves your network
