Hi I need to purchase some Sql software to compress and quickly backup data
files, proactively monitor a whole range of servers in real time and I need
auditing at the log level for ddl events and rollbacks in case of emergencies.
files, proactively monitor a whole range of servers in real time and I need
auditing at the log level for ddl events and rollbacks in case of emergencies.
Idera SQL Diagnostic Manager --for monitoring
Aspex ApexSQL Log --for logs
Quest LiteSpeed --for backups
I believe these to be the best products for each task but my problem is they
are all from different vendors. Would you purchase what you thought was the
best or just get everything from one vendor and compromise slighlty on the
product?
thanks for any real world advice on this matter.

Well you can get 2 out of 3 if you use Spotlight for Enterprise from Quest
instead of Idera. But if you are running SQL 2005 you can audit at the DDL
level using DDL events. Depending on what you want for "rollbacks" it is
hard to say which is best.
