Hybrid Cloud is our environment and will be for many other large customers for the foreseeable future. Why does SolarWinds keep thinking that on-prem is totally different than “Cloud”? I see this argument from a network perspective (Public -vs- Private IP) , but we are talking databases. SWI proved this point 6 years ago when it was launched in DPA in the AWS Market Place.

We have a large opportunity for PostgreSQL performance monitoring (and a little bit of SQL Server) maybe Visual Cortex will fit the bill, but our use case is perfect for DPA if it just supported PostgreSQL.

If you still have my phone number please give me a call sometime, would love to catch-up it has been way to long Tom!
