Here’s how we turned a six-figure hardware upgrade into an SQL optimization win. When a major property management firm faced crippling software slowdowns, their vendor pushed for expensive new hardware. 

Instead, our analysis revealed the truth: inefficient queries were the real culprit. Through careful optimization, their CPU usage dropped by 83x and query speeds jumped by 9x. No hardware upgrade needed, just smarter SQL optimization.
