Refactoring Existing Database Layers for Improved Performance, Readability and Simplicity

Since the late 90s, support and services at SAAB have produced and maintained a product called ELDIS. ELDIS is an application used by Swedish armed forces at air bases in Sweden and flight technicians at air bases. It displays electrical information, wire diagrams, and detailed information for cables, electrical equipment, and other electrical devices. The main problem for ELDIS is that when drawing wire diagrams in the application, it takes too long of a time when the stored procedures are retrieving information from the database. There are two significant areas in this project, analyzing and optimizing stored procedures and implementing a client-side solution. This project aims to guide SAAB to choose the right approach for solving the performance issue of the application and display some of the problems that can exist with slow stored procedures for companies in general. This project has optimized the most used stored procedure at SAAB and compared it to a client-side solution and the original application. The result of this project is that both the optimized stored procedure implementation and the client-side implementation is a faster option than the original implementation. It also highlights that when trying to optimize the stored procedures, indexing on the database should be considered for increasing the performance of a stored procedure.
