Our portal intranet becomes very slow sometimes, but the server seems to be running fine.
So I was wondering what SQL monitoring tool do you guys recommend to keep an eye on it and find out what is happening.
We have noticed that the main lockdown happens before a weekly meeting. Interesting part is that we use Lync for the meeting, and our server is hosted in Azure, however I doubt that this 2 are connected. The other thing is that most people login at that time too, but last week the developer could not open the SQL management either, so we thing the the SQL DB is locking for some reason, and hence why I would like to monitor it.
I am pretty basic when it comes to SQL knowledge, but I don't think it is a problem with the server itself, but rather on some query or something that is happening and needs to time out before continuing.
