SQL optimization is a critical piece of the application performance puzzle. When SQL queries and workloads in applications are not tuned for optimal performance, they can impact Service Level Agreements (SLAs), consume precious resources or in extreme situations cause application outages. Application degradation puts revenue at risk and negatively impacts customer satisfaction. It also drives up infrastructure costs.
