Dear Experts,I was just inherited databases that are a part system as specified below:- 2 DB Servers SQL 2012 with mirroring (active - active, all synch'ed)Sometimes, due to business transactions, these servers have to withstand up-to 200 simultaneous and continuous transactions up-to 5K transactions during normal day before the system slowing down (during a busiest day its like 50K transactions). The database is still up and running though.The database is running very well if there are a few concurrent transactions.. Think about a amusement park with 50 cashiers and each cashier has 100 people queuing. And each person can have 100 transactions (say each person can buy 100 tickets in 1 transaction). The system is cashles, so the people have to use bracelet / card with non-storing RFID.All the transactions hitting the same table (INSERT). each transaction has to be validated as well. The validation itself is pretty simple and only involves 1-3 tables. Some tables has triggers on it too.Now :1. How can i know the maximum number of simultaneous-continuous transactions on this mirrored DB ?2. How can i check the configuration of mirrored DB ?3. Whats is the best practice to handle concurrent transactions over period of time ?4. How can i check "whats going on in the database" during transaction ? 5. What parameters are checked during the transaction ?6. How can i improve this situation ?Thank you so much for your sharing of knowledge and experience.
