Maintain the SolarWinds Orion database in the Orion Platform
This topic applies to all Orion Platform products.
All Orion Platform products use a Microsoft SQL Server database to store Orion Web Console settings and collected network performance and configuration data.
There are two utilities that allow you to perform the most commonly required database tasks without having to access either the Microsoft SQL Server or its associated tools.
Database Manager
Add SQL servers to your Orion configuration, view database information, perform queries or edit database values. See View database details and data in the Database Manager.
Database Maintenance
Summarize, clean, and compact your SolarWinds Orion database. See Database maintenance in the Orion Platform.
