In this webinar, recorded on November 10, 2026, Andre Beaumont introduces the Microsoft SQL Server Plug-in for Oracle Enterprise Manager, and Christian Mundwiler demonstrates it live in the Oracle EM console against SQL Server 2022 on Linux and an Always On availability group.
The demo works through the questions a DBA brings to the console: what ran between 3 and 4 o'clock yesterday, what the engine was waiting on, which deadlocks happened overnight, whether an index is safe to drop, and how much data you would lose if you failed over right now. The session closes with how the plug-in's findings become alerts in the Oracle EM console you already run, and questions from attendees.
