Remote DBA Services Providers
SQL Sentry software takes the "remote" out of remote DBA services. Regardless of how you connect to the client site, with Performance Advisor and Event Manager you can be assured greater visibility into any SQL Server environment in addition to reliable and detailed notifications. This leads to more proactive, dependable, and professional SQL Server management services, and less DBA resources required to manage the environment. To receive more

Installation option
Persistent Connection
In a Remote DBA environment where multiple client sites are managed via persistent connectivity such as a VPN tunnels over the Internet or point-to-point connections, the optimal installation involves SQL Sentry Consoles on each DBA workstation connected to a common SQL Sentry database on the same LAN.
One or more SQL Sentry Server services are installed at each client site configured to only watch the servers at that site. Assuming there is not a trust relationship between the remote site and the DBA monitoring location, pass-through authentication may be used to allow the Server service in each site to communicate with the SQL Sentry data repository.

Installation option
On-demand Connectivity
When non-persistent, on-demand connectivity to a client site is used, you can quickly and easily setup a "disconnected" SQL Sentry installation with the Console, Server service, and database at each client site. All SQL Sentry components can be placed on the same machine, and the remote DBA connects to each SQL Sentry installation by Terminal Services or Citrix over a secure VPN. Each installation is configured to monitor only servers in that location, and will alert the remote DBA team and/or clients to any issues as appropriate.
