PowerGlide Storage Optimizer
See where your ServiceNow data is growing. Stop paying for what you don’t need.
Instead of guessing which tables are ballooning or relying on manual audits, Storage Optimizer continuously tracks table growth trends and surfaces actionable insights directly inside your instance.
What It Does
-
Track table size growth over time
Identify which tables are growing fastest by size and row count with historical trends. -
Monitor row count changes
Spot abnormal growth patterns that signal misbehaving integrations, runaway jobs, or poor data hygiene. -
Surface high-risk tables automatically
Quickly identify tables that are driving storage costs or increasing platform overhead. -
Create targeted table cleaners
Safely design cleanup strategies for stale or unnecessary data without blind deletes. -
Reduce storage spend
Eliminate hidden data bloat and delay costly storage expansions.
Why It Matters
Uncontrolled data growth doesn’t just increase storage costs it:
-
Slows queries and reports
-
Increases upgrade and clone times
-
Raises operational risk
-
Hides defects that surface only when it’s too late
Storage Optimizer turns storage management from a reactive cleanup exercise into a proactive, governed practice.
