In their own words
pganalyze
pganalyze monitors PostgreSQL production workloads and supports performance tuning. It tracks query slowdowns over time and collects execution plans for slow queries. The Index Advisor identifies missing indexes and provides information about unused ones. Its VACUUM Advisor offers workload-aware autovacuum guidance, while Alerts & Check-Up detects common database problems and can notify teams through email, Slack, or PagerDuty. The service is available through API, Linux, web, and self-hosted deployments. Installation guidance covers AWS RDS and Aurora, Azure Flexible Server, Google Cloud SQL and AlloyDB, self-managed systems, Heroku Postgres, Crunchy Bridge, Aiven, Supabase, and Neon. An open-source collector sends metrics and metadata snapshots periodically. In its recommended setup, a restricted role reads statistics and metadata without reading user data or modifying the database. pganalyze says sensitive query information is filtered, offers Docker-based on-premise deployment, and is SOC 2 Type 2 certified. Production costs $149 a month.
