Database Administration as a service

Database Administration as a Service (DBAaaS) is the modern way of extending or replacing your DBA team with high-quality data administration resource at a fraction of the cost of an in-house DBA team.

The Business Advantages of DBAaaS

Managing and supporting data platforms requires many specific data skills and software based tools. Many businesses want to or need to work with an outsourced team of experienced data professionals who can manage databases quicker, better, and cheaper than in-house database administrators (DBA). DBAaaS provides a flexible and proactive approach to database platform management.

Reduce Costs

We help you to reduce your database administration expenditure, freeing up budget to invest in other IT projects.

Optimise performance.

We continuously monitor and optimise your database stats and indexes, keeping your database queries running.

Reduce Business Risk

We help you mitigate the impact of any data disruption from disaster scenarios to ensure business continuity and security.

Services

Do you need to add or bolster database resources?

You may have either a resource or skills-based challenge or you may need to improve or change the way you manage your databases. Our customers naturally fall into one of three categories who have either:

No Database Administrator

As data volumes continue to grow we help you to rationalise, migrate and integrate your data to keep your data organised and stored in the correct formats.

A Single or “Accidental” DBA

We ensure that your database is running at optimal speed, backed-up, recoverable and always available so you can concentrate on running your business.

A DBA Team

A picture tells a thousand words so we help you to present your data so it can reveal insightful trends, opportunities and issues that you can address quickly.

Benefits

When might you need DBAaaS ?

You may have either a resource or skills-based challenge or you may need to improve or change the way you manage your databases and data platform. Our customers naturally fall into one of three categories who have either:

No Database Administrator

No specific responsibility for database administration and no known need or budget for a full-time database administration resource.

This is the most risky as no one has been formally trained for data recovery. We hear from these companies the most usually during or after a disaster.

A Single or “Accidental” DBA

Where one person has all the knowledge and responsibility about the organisations databases, or a person has been tasked with DBA duties but no formal DBA skills or training has been provided.

One DBA is good but leaves risk when they are on holiday or off sick. An accidental DBA can leave you with a false sense of security until disaster strikes and data recovery is required.

A DBA Team

You have an internal DBA team but most of their time is spent on BAU activities and not focused on delivering the data projects the business needs.

We can take over the BAU activities to free your team to work on those business visible projects or provide additional resource to get projects completed.

Least risk to the business.
