Performance
Accelerate Network Performance
SQL Nitro, a new utility from DBA24Hrs, organizes and compresses data going to and from the server by sending multiple Tabular Data Stream (TDS) packages per TCP packet and then compressing the larger TCP packets. SQL Nitro sits in the TCP stack to avoid drawing from server resources. SQL Nitro 1.2 is available for $495 directly from the vendor.
