How to monitor database instances: PRTG Oracle-monitoring in action
PRTG's preconfigured sensors for Oracle monitoring track key stats of your Oracle SL databases round the clock. If something isn't working as it should, PRTG alerts you straight away via SMS, email, in-app push notification, and other methods, so you can troubleshoot and fix the issue double quick.
Oracle SQL v2
The Oracle SQL v2 sensor monitors a database on an Oracle server and executes a query. It keeps a close eye on:
- Execution time of an entire query, including how long it takes to establish a connection, query processing, transaction processing, and disconnection time
- Execution time of a specific data query
- The number of rows affected by a query
Oracle Tablespace
The Oracle Tablespace sensor monitors a tablespace on an Oracle server and shows the following:
- The number of free blocks
- The free space
- The overall status and online status
- The overall size of the tablespace and the tablespace on disk

Monitoring Oracle SQL: FAQ
What is a RDBMS?
A Relational Database Management System (RDBMS) is a type of database management system (DBMS) that organizes data into tables with rows and columns, where each row represents a record and each column represents a specific attribute or field.
RDBMSs use structured query language (SQL) for managing and querying data. They provide mechanisms for ensuring the integrity and consistency of data through features like transactions, constraints, and referential integrity.
What is PRTG Oracle monitoring?
PRTG is a proprietary software tool that tracks the health and performance of Oracle databases and other important components of your enterprise network. Available for on-premises Windows and Linux servers or as a cloud-hosted SaaS monitoring service, it's capable of monitoring unlimited local, remote, and virtual network devices, bringing critical system data together in one simple, intuitive interface you can access from anywhere: at the office, at home, or on the go.
Can PRTG monitor other SQL databases?
Yes. PRTG has preconfigured sensors for most major SQL database vendors, including Microsoft SQL, MySQL, and PostgreSQL. And if you need to enhance the functionality of Paessler PRTG and benefit from even more advanced database monitoring, check out our new product extension PRTG Database Observer.
What are the benefits of Oracle monitoring tools?
Using Oracle monitoring software like PRTG has several benefits, for example:
- Performance optimization: Oracle database monitoring tools help identify and address performance bottlenecks. This ensures efficient query execution and optimal use of system resources.
- Proactive issue detection: By continuously monitoring Oracle database metrics, these tools can detect and alert on potential issues before they escalate. This allows administrators to take preventive measures.
- Resource management: Oracle monitoring tools provide insights into resource utilization, which enables administrators to allocate resources effectively, scale infrastructure as needed, and avoid unnecessary downtime.
- Security and compliance: Monitoring tools contribute to security by identifying unusual activities or potential security breaches.
- Capacity planning: By analyzing historical trends and current usage patterns, Oracle database monitoring tools assist in capacity planning. This allows organizations to anticipate future resource needs and make informed decisions about scaling infrastructure.
How does an SQL database work?
In an SQL database, data is organized into tables, each with predefined columns and data types. SQL (Structured Query Language) is used to define, manipulate, and query the data. When a query is executed, the database management system (DBMS) interprets and optimizes the SQL statements to interact with the underlying data.
The DBMS processes queries using algorithms to efficiently retrieve, update, or delete records. Additionally, SQL databases enforce data integrity through constraints like primary keys, foreign keys, and unique constraints, ensuring consistency and reliability in the stored data.
What is a sensor in PRTG?
In PRTG, “sensors” are the basic monitoring elements. One sensor usually monitors one measured value in your network, for example the traffic of a switch port, the CPU load of a server, or the free space on a disk drive.
On average, you need about 5-10 sensors per device or one sensor per switch port.
