New Feature: Slow Query Logs

We’re pleased to announce the Slow Query Logs page that will help developers debug the database, providing the ability to identify queries made by an application that takes an unusually long time to execute.

Slow queries should be optimized to improve database efficiency and the overall responsiveness of an application.

A developer could get the information displayed on the new page, test the full query in the database, and work on SQL tuning to improve performance. Then, depending on the duration, rows examined, or rows sent, the developer can work on a different approach to improve it.

For example, a new index or limiting the rows returned can improve 99% of the query execution time and the page load.

Learn more about Slow Query Logs in our documentation.

We’d love to know what you think about this feature; please get in touch!
