Customers now have the ability to monitor their databases on the Yield Book website. The Yield Book Database Manager offers a top-level summary view as well as a more detailed view to help users decide when and what to clean up.

The summary view is a chart that shows the percentage of the database taken up by each category. The following is a list of these categories

• Bond: User bonds and copies of MTGDB securities
• Holdings: Portfolios
• PY Data: Pricing data saved to the database. For example, if you price a Citigroup bond in YBPORT, the price is saved to the database until Yield Book updates the price overnight.
• User Var: User keywords
• Other: Used for standard Yield Book operations
• Free: Unused database space

There is also a detailed view that breaks down the components of each category. For example, the Holdings Summary will tell you which portfolios are taking up the majority of the database space. To try the Yield Book Database Manager please use the following link:
