Application and database context correlation for database application developers

摘要

Infrastructure for capturing and correlating application context and database context for tuning, profiling and debugging tasks. The application context can include events such as data access events, and the database context can include events such as database server events. The events can be obtained from server tracing, data access layer tracing, and/or application tracing and written into respective log files. A data access event can indicate that an application consumed a row from a result set returned from a DBMS query. A post-processing step can correlate the application and database contexts by tokenizing strings and computing intersections between the tokenized strings. A tool inside a development environment may also suggest a query hint for the database or a data access API for the application based on the correlated context.
