Status and success rate cover calls made through Zero and Zero's own probes. Third-party monitors may report differently.

## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability the-stall-db-performance-intelligence-19c39071
```

Example prompt: Pull me the latest performance intelligence report for my database — I want to see query latency, throughput, and any bottleneck diagnostics so I can figure out what's slowing things down.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need on-demand database performance intelligence without setting up accounts or API keys, and are comfortable paying micro-amounts of USDC per call via x402 on Base mainnet. Ideal for AI agents that need ad-hoc DB performance data in automated pipelines.

## Known failure modes

- Missing or invalid required parameters returns a 400-level error
- Insufficient USDC payment or failed x402 payment flow returns a 402 Payment Required
- Database identifier not recognized returns empty or error response
- Upstream data source unavailable returns 503 or timeout
- Malformed input schema results in parsing error

## How this service works

Database performance intelligence: current versions, EOL status, and benchmark-grounded performance profiles for PostgreSQL, MySQL, MariaDB, MongoDB, Redis, Elasticsearch, SQLite, Cassandra, CockroachDB, and SQL Server. Useful mid-task for infrastructure audits, database selection, and upgrade urgency checks. Live EOL data from endoflife.date; performance profiles from TPC-C, pgbench, sysbench, and YCSB benchmarks.

## Output

Returns database performance intelligence data such as query metrics, latency statistics, throughput figures, bottleneck diagnostics, and optimization insights relevant to the queried database context.
