SQL SERVERS are good for many things, but for storing a lot of small pieces of data in short intervals they are not a suitable SOLUTION. That is why we developed our own database format which is systematically optimized for saving monitoring data.

You benefit from:

Performance:

In tests our database was up to 100 times faster than an SQL server. Using this huge advance in performance we are able to analyze and show historic data in real time.

Network Load:

PRTG database server is INTEGRATED into the core server. No data transfer through the network to another installation is needed.

Configuration and Maintenance :

Our integrated database does not need any EXTRA configuration or maintenance. UPDATES are deployed automatically with the usual PRTG updates.

Licensing :

• The database is included in all PRTG licenses. No SQL license is required.
• And should you need your data for other applications or statistics, you can export monitoring data from PRTG to external databases any time via the integrated API.
