Solve Business and Database Problems

Frequently, user or application errors can lead to unexpected results in the database. Log Explorer gives you the unique ability to navigate directly to the cause of the problem. Once the problem is well understood, you can easily fix the data, identify the culprit, and prevent similar problems from recurring. This leads to increased data availability and reliability, and less down time.

To demonstrate how this works, we will construct a scenario that includes unexpected changes to the LumigentDemoDB billing data, then show how you can use Log Explorer to pinpoint the culprit.

In addition, Log Explorer can display system level changes to the database, schema, and permissions. This option, called 'View DDL Commands', is shown after the billing data example.
