FAQs

How does DBmarlin pricing work?

DBmarlin licenses based on the number of active database instances (for Oracle, SQL Server, MySQL, PostgreSQL, MariaDB, Informix, SAP ASE), active databases (for IBM Db2), or active nodes (for CockroachDB) you wish to monitor.
Do I need separate licenses for High Availability (HA) or Disaster Recovery (DR) instances?

No additional licenses are needed for standby HA/DR instances as they are typically idle. A license is only required if the secondary instance is actively serving traffic concurrently with the primary.
Are discounts available for monitoring multiple databases or multi-year commitments?

Yes, volume discounts are automatically applied for monitoring more than ten databases, and additional discounts are available for multi-year commitments.
How can I get a quotation?

You can request a quotation by contacting DBmarlin via email at info@applicationperformance.com.
Does the pricing include taxes?

No, all listed prices exclude taxes (like VAT). Applicable taxes depend on your business location and are your responsibility.
