Exact Announces iReplay, the SQL Workload Replay Solution for All Major Databases

NEW YORK, July 8 PRNewswire — Exact Solutions, a leading provider of software for SQL performance measurement, today announced iReplay(TM), a database workload capture & replay solution for Sybase, Oracle, IBM UBD/DB2, and Microsoft SQL Server databases.

An alternative to traditional load simulators and scripting tools, iReplay(TM) allows organizations to capture full-scale production SQL workloads, and then reproduce the same workloads with all of their native complexity for analysis in test environments. This approach effectively eliminates the gap between production traffic and simulated test conditions, allowing organizations to predict more reliably the impact of changes to critical information systems, while substantially reducing the associated risks.

"In simple terms," says company founder Hardev Dhindsa, "We're reducing the odds that something unexpected can slip through the cracks. It's a rare company that hasn't been stung at some point by a nasty software bug showing up in production, even after weeks or months of lab tests. The reason is pretty simple: simulators can't really duplicate the complexity of live production traffic. iReplay can."

According to Mr. Dhindsa, iReplay test runs will accurately reproduce the behavior and complexity of the original SQL workload, maintaining concurrency and contention while allowing the flexibility to tailor replay runs to meet specific test objectives.

Recommended for regression testing, functional testing, performance testing and capacity planning applications, iReplay(TM) is now available for Sybase, Oracle and DB2. The company also announced plans to release a version for use with Microsoft SQL Server, including support for encrypted traffic, by Q4 08.

The operation of iReplay is non-intrusive, so it will not affect the performance of the underlying database. The product also includes built-in SQL-level performance analytics based on the same technology found in the company's iWatch performance monitor.
