Database Performance Analyzer for DB2
Drill down into DB2 databases to pinpoint the root cause of poor performance.
Starts at
Get a QuoteDatabase performance doesn’t have to be a guessing game. Do you find yourself asking…
How can I optimize performance?
Quickly identify bottlenecks, pinpoint their root causes, and prioritize actions.
Can I identify performance issues based on resource usage?
DPA can help determine true root cause of issues through wait-time analysis.
Where do I begin optimizing my database?
DPA identifies the most impactful queries and inefficient workloads.
We’re here to help make database performance easier.
Key Features
- Wait-time analytics
A performance analysis tool that focuses on response time to identify bottlenecks and understand where the database spends time.
DPA’s unique Multi-Dimensional Performance Analysis correlates wait time with resources, events, and other dimensions to quickly pinpoint the largest contributors to slow performance.
- Performance intelligence
Provides a single version of the truth across databases and the infrastructure that supports database performance.
See into database OS, virtualization resources and events, the physical host, storage systems, and the network to eliminate finger-pointing. Visibility across the stack stops guesswork.
- Anomaly Detection
Use machine learning-powered anomaly detection to know when behavior is different than expected.
Use an intelligent algorithm that gets better over time to understand your DB2 wait behavior so you can see and alert when patterns deviate from expected.
- Collaboration across teams
Developers, DBAs, and operations teams can finally get on the same page. DPA helps everyone understand performance.
DPA web interface and read-only rights make it safe to use across teams. Developers can see the impact of new code in production, and operations can see the impact of any changes.
- Performance history
Years of history with one-second resolution at your fingertips.
Discover the cause of past issues, drill down to specific points in time, compare and analyze historic performance and metric baselines to find anomalies and problems.
- Scalable, agentless architecture
Stay on top of real-world performance from dozens, hundreds, or thousands of instances across environments.
No agents to deploy or maintain. Monitor test, dev, and production environments across data centers and cloud with DPA Central Server.
- Management API
Automate and scale the management of your database environment with our API.
Use the management REST API to programmatically manage your environment including the ability to register, license, stop/start monitors, annotate, and more.
- Query analysis and expert advice
Tuning advisors provide clear and actionable advice.
DPA provides deep query and execution plan analysis. Tuning advisors point to problems that need immediate focus.
- Locking and blocking analysis
Nail down the root blockers and get locking analysis including cumulative impact on response times.
DPA displays root blockers and total waits to keep tuning focused on critical queries. Identify why objects are waiting and see the last query of an idle blocker.
- Alerts and reports
Proactive monitoring and automated alerts help warn you whenever performance degradation occurs.
Comprehensive alerting and reporting that won’t overload your inbox. Baselines highlight outliers. DPA comes with pre-built alerts and reports, or you can create your own.
- Application-centric view of database performance
View DPA wait times, analysis, and metrics within SolarWinds Orion® Platform interface.
Get database performance in the context of specific applications within SolarWinds SAM. See everything from web transactions to LUN performance.
- VMware vSphere performance monitoring
Correlate database to VM performance

Database Performance Analyzer for DB2 is an industry favorite. Hands down.
“SolarWinds DPA provides insight without excessive monitoring overhead. SolarWinds DPA makes you look like a genius.”
Kevin McCool
“The biggest benefit of using SolarWinds DPA is fast root cause analysis on application performance issues. SolarWinds DPA is an intuitive and easy-to-use tool that allows anyone to see inside an enterprise DB system while it is running.”
Carlos Jofre
“SolarWinds DPA changes the job from ‘figuring out what to fix’ to ‘fixing it.’ The fastest way to get from ‘I don’t know what’s wrong’ to fixing what’s wrong.”
