Why do we need SQL status monitoring
Some times applications that we do not control,keep their status information in SQL data bases. We would like to know when given values change as they change, so we can perform actions based on this information.

The SQL status monitor is an agent of the Genie - monitoring platform product that queries data from databases on a large scale to discover changes in table fields and can launch a user defined event handler when such a change occurs.

The agent was built to perform this operation very fast using asynchronous operations and complex algorithms, that enables it to monitor multiple databases and mutiple fields in short cycles. The agent does not wait for a response from a given node to monitor other nodes.

It contains many flow control parameters that enables it to work in all kinds of networks.
The agent supports on the node level:

• Monitoring frequency
• Monitoring hours
• Number of threads used
