SQL Deadlock Detector is a Zero-impact SQL server tool.
Deadlocks can adversely influence server performance. A deadlock occurs when two or more SQL Server processes each have locks on distinct database objects. While holding on to their existing locks, each process is trying to acquire a lock on the database object that one of the other processes have locked. Because two processes cannot exclusively lock the same object simultaneously, we get a deadlock situation, where both processes are entangled and neither process is able to move forward. SQL Server recognizes this situation and tries to rectify it by killing one of the processes in order to allow the other process to continue. The terminated process is rolled back and then an error is flagged.
When SQL deadlocks occur, your server’s performance slows down and suffers. Deadlocks can use up your SQL server’s resources and waste CPU power. Server problems may also confuse users. SQL server deadlocks ultimately cost your business money as it drags server performance down.
SQL Solutions’ SQL Deadlock Detector is a SQL server performance tuning tool developed to help you solve your server deadlock problems. By allowing you to eliminate server deadlocks, SQL Deadlock Detector is the fastest, easiest way to a smooth-running SQL server.

SQL Deadlock Detector is a new SQL server tool, designed to monitor your SQL server 24/7. Usually, by the time customers call Technical Support, offending locks and deadlocks have already disappeared. It is often too late to utilize Enterprise manager or to run internal SQL commands such as sp_lock to diagnose the problem.
The SQLSolutions utility, SQL Deadlock Detector™ captures all details surrounding lock and deadlock events and translates them in a meaningful, easy-to-understand way. Event diagrams and full information on offending SQL code and participating objects tell you everything you need to know in order to resolve and prevent locking and deadlock problems.
A companion tool to SQL Trace Analyzer™, SQL Deadlock Detector™ constantly monitors your system for lock and deadlock events, with zero impact on your database’s performance.
You should definitely use this tool if you have performance problems, or if your applications lead to “timeout expired” errors or the famous "Your transaction was deadlocked with another process and has been chosen as the deadlock victim. Rerun your transaction".
Product supports both SQL server 2000 (it uses flags 3605 and 1204) and SQL server 2005.

The Nature and
Effects of Object Locking
Object locking is an intrinsic behavior in relational databases including SQL Server. It prevents concurrent SQL statements from performing conflicting modifications to your database by locking the data and blocking other requests. This has the unwelcome effects of slowdown in overall performance and even complete termination of blocked operations. Unfortunately, there is no easy solution to this problem but to painstakingly identify the responsible SQL codes and participating objects and to optimize them. SQL Deadlock Detector allows you to easily and effectively perform this difficult task. Call us toll-free at (800)283-4775 or (215)701-3913 today.
