Query Performance Review
Find the statements that burn CPU and I/O, read their plans, and leave a ranked list of index and rewrite fixes your developers can schedule.
Who this is for
Teams watching dashboards light up during peak hours: checkout pages timing out, reports blocking writers, ORMs emitting surprise joins. You need someone who can sit with EXPLAIN output and application code together.
What you receive
A written review covering the top offenders from your slow-query log or APM export, with before/after plan notes where we could reproduce the issue on staging. Fixes are ranked by impact and risk so your sprint board stays honest.
Included
- Intake of logs and representative parameters (scrubbed of personal data)
- Plan interpretation and index or statistics suggestions
- Suggested SQL or ORM adjustments for the worst offenders
- A short pairing call to walk through the first two changes
Not included
- Continuous monitoring as a managed service
- Hardware procurement advice as a primary deliverable
- Guaranteeing a specific millisecond target without measuring your hardware
Next step
If refactoring the schema would remove the need for heroic query rewrites, we will say so and point you to Database Refactoring. Otherwise, request a scope call with a sample of your slowest statements.
