What are slow queries?

Before diving into the details of Smart Query Monitor, let’s clarify what slow queries are. In short, a query is a request used to interact with your database. it retrieves, updates, deletes, or inserts data information. 

A slow query is any query that takes too long to execute, leading to performance issues on your site. Slow query resolution is particularly critical for eCommerce platforms where speed directly impacts conversions.

The challenge of troubleshooting slow queries

Dealing with slow queries can be frustrating and time-consuming. Identifying the source of performance bottlenecks often involves sifting through complex data and logs. 

This process not only hampers productivity, but also impacts your bottom line by affecting user experience and, potentially, sales.

How Smart Query Monitor can help

SQM simplifies the process of pinpointing and addressing slow queries and has several unique advantages over other query monitoring tools, including:

• Continuous monitoring and logging: SQM logs slow queries, providing you with detailed insights into query performance over time. This data enables us to enhance the tool’s functionality, including alerts for performance changes or issues related to specific plugins.
• Zero performance impact: Unlike traditional plugins or premium solutions that can strain your server, Smart Query Monitor runs seamlessly in the background without affecting your site’s performance.
• Built-in and preconfigured: No setup or configuration is required. Smart Query Monitor is integrated into WP Engine’s platform, offering immediate benefits without any additional effort on your part.

How it works

Let’s take a closer look at how Smart Query Monitor functions:

• Easy access: From the “Sites Overview” page in your WP Engine dashboard, locate Smart Query Monitor under “eCommerce features,” and click “View Queries” to see a list of queries taking longer than the specified threshold.

• Comprehensive details: Each query log includes the date of execution, the asset associated with the slow result (e.g., plugin, theme, or script), the duration of the query, and a link to a detailed report.

• Detailed reports: Clicking on a query report reveals additional information such as asset type, request URL, and—most importantly—the source file, line, and code snippet where the issue originated.
