SQL Server Health Check Step 3: Report Findings & Recommendations

In our last blog post, we talked about analyzing results during the second step of our Health Check. The third and final step describes what you can expect when we present our findings and recommendations.

After collecting key metrics and analyzing your environment, our team compiles and presents a comprehensive report that includes:

• Executive Summary
• Current Environment Configuration

The report will provide a detailed description of your current environment, as well as actionable recommendations.  The “to do” list is designed to correct specific problems, improve overall security and performance in these areas:

• Configuration
• Performance
• Disaster Recovery
• Security
• Additional Concerns

In summary, we provide you with extensive research and practical recommendations customized for your organization.  As we present our finding and recommendations, we make certain to answer any questions and explain the “to do” list.  We can fix the problems or work with your team to make sure your SQL Server environment is stable, performs as expected and the problems fixed.
