new program, our analysts can save countless hours a week in maintenance by
procuring and implementing this new technology. This summary includes a brief

What is SQL Sentry?
SQL Sentry is a monitoring system for our SQL Servers. With a one-point access
dashboard view to all our servers, this program provides all the data at our fingertips

Has an outlook interface style.
Streamlines our queries, creates historical graphs for events, diagnose and
optimizes our servers, and helps us find and correct errors faster with a drag-

will allow us to free up hours a week for our analysts to move on to new projects within
the company.
