overhead. Industry leaders – like Etsy, GitHub, SendGrid, and Yelp – rely on VividCortex for all-query monitoring, easy drill-down views across thousands of servers concurrently.

Founded in 2012, and headquartered in Northern Virginia, VividCortex has become one of the fastest growing software companies in America due to its continued unique focus on helping customers see and understand their database. By providing insight into database performance, customers are able to fully optimize their software applications and serve their customers better.


We provide a different kind of visibility. Most application performance issues originate in the database, but typical application performance monitoring tools lack full transparency into the data tier. Our unique expertise is in providing SaaS that is built specifically to measure the performance of your database.

We believe in purpose-built Database Performance Monitoring - not simply thousands of charts and graphs. Databases are different from other app tiers. They're high-performance and stateful, and they aren't easily instrumented. They need highly specialized tools, and developer and operations staff need an application-wide, unified, database-centric view of the work the persistence layer is doing.

The VividCortex solution is a fundamentally new approach to this problem. Built from first principles and based on advanced statistics and queueing theory, VividCortex is redefining database monitoring.
