SalesLogix Service Pack 4 (v6.2.4) functionality:

SQL Optimization Toolkit - Technology Preview

The SQL Optimization Toolkit adds the following features and functionality to SalesLogix:

• Provides a database independent mechanism for tuning SQL executed through the SalesLogix OLE DB Provider that does not require source level access to the SQL. You can use the Optimization Toolkit to handtune certain SQL statements. This may be used for troubleshooting performance issues that arise due to large databases and user sites.
• This Optimization Toolkit is integrated with the SalesLogix Profiling Toolkit. Individual queries can be selected and tuned, and the Provider substitutes the optimized query when any client application attempts to execute it.
• Optimized queries are database specific. Therefore, hand-tuned queries for each database vendor can co-exist in one database to support an Oracle host and Microsoft SQL remote environments.
• Optimizations can be turned on and off without having to remove them completely.
