Tidy Space, Tidy Mind; How to Better Manage SQL Environments Across Cloud Providers
summary
Explains how a single monitoring pipeline across Azure, AWS and GCP surfaces the actual money drains: collects query telemetry from SQL Server, Oracle, MySQL, Postgres, Snowflake, DB2 and MongoDB, computes an impact score to rank optimization candidates, and links straight to the instance and SQL text for tuning. Detects zombie VMs and unused disks, recommends and automates resize actions, and reports projected savings; a new cross‑database “query insight” page ships in about one to two months.
