LightspeedTune — Oracle tuning that thinks with you
An AI assistant trained on real production incidents, built right into the IDE.
lstune reads your workload and matches it against a signature engine trained on the incidents our own DBA team actually gets paged for — then tells you exactly what it found, before it becomes an outage:
Full table scan stormsa hot query loses its index path and floods I/O
Non-selective indexesfilters almost nothing but costs on every write
Database link stallsremote calls quietly serializing your batch window
Queue backlog build-upAQ depth climbing while consumers fall behind

The problem
Every Oracle IDE fails you at scale
If you work on a real enterprise database — an IFS Cloud schema alone holds 200,000+ objects — every existing option breaks down in its own way.
✕
Toad & PL/SQL Developer
Windows-only. On a Mac or Linux workstation, that means a VM or a remote desktop just to browse a schema.
✕
SQL Developer
Goes back to the database on every click. Each tree expand, each tab — another round trip you sit through.
✕
DataGrip
Loads the data dictionary into memory. Fine for small schemas; painful when the dictionary itself is huge.
✕
At 200k+ objects, they choke
Per-click round trips and in-memory dictionaries both hit a wall at enterprise scale. Browsing turns into waiting.
SQLlightspeed was built for that scale — not despite it.
Open a 200,000-object schema and find one table
Typical wait, as measured in our daily IFS work — watch the bars race.

The product
Fast by architecture, not by caching tricks
Every design decision serves one goal: the interface never makes you wait for the database.
Speed
Built for speed, from the ground up
Every part of SQLlightspeed was engineered for one job: never make you wait. Instant cold start, a tiny memory footprint, and no lag creeping in the longer you work.
Zero baggage
No JVM. No Electron. No Instant Client.
Nothing to install besides the app. SQLlightspeed speaks to Oracle directly — no client libraries, no runtime stacks, no 2 GB IDE folder.
Search
⌘P across everything, < 50 ms
Any table, view, package or index out of 200,000+ objects — matched as you type from a local index, in under 50 ms. No round trip to the database.
Grid
Million-row virtual grid
Scroll through million-row result sets without a stutter. Rows render on demand; memory stays flat no matter how big the result.
Sessions
One Oracle session per worksheet
A long-running query in one worksheet never blocks another — and never freezes the UI. Kill, commit or roll back each worksheet independently.
DDL
Creation wizards for all 13 object types
Tables, views, materialized views, sequences, synonyms, procedures, functions, packages and more — every object type has a guided wizard that writes clean DDL for you.
⌘P — any object in the schema, found in under 50 milliseconds.
One menu, thirteen wizards — every object type covered.Sessions, wait events and blockers — live, in one panel.
Trust
Built by DBAs, for DBAs
Our team administers large-scale Oracle and IFS production environments for enterprise customers every single day. SQLlightspeed exists because we needed it ourselves — and its guardrails come from real incidents, not imagination.
PROD wears a red banner
Production connections are unmistakably marked. You always know which database you're touching — before you touch it.
Destructive ops ask twice
DROP, TRUNCATE and friends require double confirmation. One accidental Enter can't take down a table.
Passwords stay in your OS vault
Credentials are stored only in your operating system's secure credential store — never in config files, never in plain text.
Questions
Frequently asked
Which platforms does SQLlightspeed run on?
macOS, Windows and Linux — the same fast, native experience on all three. No second-class platforms.
Do I need to install a JVM, Electron, or Oracle Instant Client?
No. SQLlightspeed is a lightweight native app. It connects to Oracle directly — nothing to install besides the app itself.
How does it stay instant on a 200,000-object schema?
It keeps a lightning-fast local object index instead of querying the dictionary per click (like SQL Developer) or holding it all in RAM (like DataGrip). A full sync of 200,000 objects takes about 0.1 seconds, and every search after that is answered locally in under 50 ms.
Is it safe to point at a production database?
It was designed by DBAs for production work: production connections get an unmistakable red banner, destructive operations require double confirmation, and passwords live only in your operating system's secure credential store.
What is LightspeedTune?
lstune is SQLlightspeed's AI-powered Oracle performance assistant. It's trained on real production incidents — full table scan storms, non-selective indexes, database link stalls, queue backlog — and flags the pattern it recognizes in your workload, with a suggested fix, right inside the IDE.
When can I get it?
The first release is coming soon. Write to info@dbo.com.tr for early access — DBAs running large schemas get priority.
Who builds SQLlightspeed?
SQLlightspeed is built by DBO, a database operations company whose DBA team manages large-scale Oracle and IFS production environments for enterprise customers every day.
