This is a guest post from Adrian Tan. Over recent months, we’ve been steadily improving PostgreSQL monitoring in Redgate Monitor, with a singular focus: to help Postgres users diagnose performance problems faster, with less manual investigation. The latest updates and new features tackle this problem in a few different ways.

Short Summary: Sometimes URL paths repeat by mistake because of tracking problems or redirect loops.. In this guide, you’ll learn how to find and count those repeats using Trino SQL. By using simple SQL tools like CTEs, arrays, and window functions, you can break a long link into smaller pieces and clean up the data without using complex regex.

SQL Prompt's February releases focused on compatibility and stability, with a critical fix for SSMS 22.3 users and several features graduating from experimental to fully supported.

Short Summary: In this guide, we address performance problems that occur when PostgreSQL queries very large tables containing low-cardinality boolean fields. It also demonstrates how composite indexes, created and tested with Devart tools, allow PostgreSQL to locate the required rows directly instead of scanning the entire table.

Short Summary: This article explains how to expand your CLI query tool so it can handle multiple databases. First, we focus on key relational systems, then move to data warehouses. We’ll use dbForge Edge as a reference point, showing how different databases can be managed in one place while keeping automation simple.

Picking an SQLite ODBC driver is like choosing a key; you need one that opens every door cleanly, without snapping or jamming. The right driver must connect your data effortlessly—no errors, no limitations. It also has to withstand real challenges: complex queries, cross-platform environments, and large datasets. In this guide, we’ll show you which 2026 drivers stand up to these demands, so you can pick the one that won’t let you down.
