POWERFUL RECOMMENDATIONS

The recommendations you need to optimize your databases.

Not only does OtterTune provide recommendations for setting configuration knobs, but it also identifies superfluous indexes and anti-patterns on SQL queries to provide suggestions to improve database performance and efficiency.

HEALTH SCORES

Know how well your databases are running and what to do to make them better.

OtterTune monitors not only individual databases, but your entire fleet. It assigns an overall score tied to best practices and AI-based optimizations for your databases, as well as individual scores for what you see below. The higher the score, the healthier your database is.

TUNING MODES AND SCHEDULES

You control how and when OtterTune implements recommendations.

OtterTune can automatically apply its recommended knob settings to databases on your behalf, with or without human approval, or give you the commands to make the changes. We realize every business has different best times of the day for performing maintenance tasks, which is why we offer customizable tuning schedules down to the day and minute.

Save money and increase performance

Stop worrying about whether database inefficiencies are caused by unoptimized configurations, indexes, queries, or other factors preventing your business from scaling and meeting your customers’ needs. OtterTune acts as your database co-pilot, continually monitoring and optimizing on your behalf to increase performance, reduce AWS costs, and give you peace of mind.

DB optimization isn't easy

PostgreSQL and MySQL have hundreds of system variables and parameters, but getting their settings optimal and stable can feel like you're playing whac-a-mole.

By combining health checks and using AI to surface recommendations, OtterTune lets you know what knobs to tune (and what values to use), what indexes are duplicates and unused, and how to improve your queries.

Help is scarce and expensive

If you're lucky enough to have a dedicated data engineer, that help is expensive (a senior data engineer's salary is $180k/year) or this more likely scenario applies to you: you're a developer or engineer tasked with doing all your normal duties plus optimizing your company's databases.

OtterTune gives you back time to work on your applications and other engineering efforts so you spend less time worrying about knobs, indexes, latency, query issues or throughput.

Spending more ≠ better performance

We all flocked to the cloud to reduce costs, not increase them. If you have an objective like throughput, you can throw more AWS power (and money) at it, but you quickly find out that performance doesn't scale in lock step with AWS costs.

This is where OtterTune shines: we can keep costs flat and increase performance, or reduce costs while still retaining performance benefits.

PostgreSQL better than ever

OtterTune has gone head-to-head with Amazon RDS's default settings and PGTune and easily came out on top.

146% more throughput than RDS settings and 74% more throughput than PGTune.

Twice the performance or half the AWS costs.
