How Performance Tuning Works at Woodler

Woodler’s SQL Server tuning service helps organizations achieve maximum database performance, stability, and security through a structured, data-driven approach.
Our process is divided into three key phases, ensuring transparency, measurable outcomes, and long-term results.

 

Phase 1: Entry Audit (SQL-A)

Duration: 1 week
Data Collection: 24 hours

Scope of Analysis:

  • Server configuration
  • Server security
  • Server performance
  • Database performance (selected main database)

License: per 1 SQL Server instance and selected main database

The Entry Audit provides a baseline assessment of your SQL Server environment.
It identifies key configuration, security, and performance issues that impact your system’s efficiency.

 

Phase 2: Monitoring and Tuning / Optimization

  • Deployment of SMT on the selected SQL Server instance (included in the leasing price), with full access for your IT staff
  • 1 MD (man-day) of consultation with Woodler’s SQL experts per month (included in the lease, non-transferable between months)

During this period, Woodler’s experts continuously monitor and fine-tune your SQL Server environment.
Optimization activities are based on identified issues and jointly agreed actions.
Performance changes are verified using SMT to ensure measurable improvements.

Additional consulting or on-site efforts beyond the included scope are provided on a time & material basis according to specific needs.

 

Phase 3: Final Audit (SQL-A)
