Tomorrow’s free webinar is focused on DBA burnout and practical database monitoring strategy.
It covers:
-
common firefighting patterns that drain admin time,
-
the key metrics to watch in hybrid and multi-database setups,
-
a live demo,
-
open Q&A,
-
and a free handbook for DBAs.
Disclosure: I’m on the ManageEngine team, so this is a vendor webinar. I’m sharing it because the topic is relevant to a lot of DBAs and IT admins, and the session is meant to be practical rather than sales-heavy.
Here's the sign-up link if you're interested:
If you're more experienced, I'd love to hear about what works for you so that I'm able to impart that knowledge onto the less experienced people tomorrow. Would be happy to take questions in the comments too!
Right now, I'm using excel to track multiple BOMs. But it's getting to be too much for simple Excel sheets to do. There's plenty of things I could do if I could just turn my BOMs into databases and use Excel as the UI.
However, I'm wondering if it's better to use something like Python with SQL to create a lightweight database? Or should I use a Microsoft native solution (I'm sure Microsoft probably has a way to create a database out of Excel).
Additionally, I am wondering if I should just go fully into a BOM software? There are some reservations I have about that because some BOMs are part of IP.
