Frequently Asked Questions
How often do I have to back up my company’s databases?
Some businesses need a backup every 15 minutes, while others need it once per day. Some businesses can afford to take a whole day to recover, while other companies need it to be under 30 minutes. Every business has different requirements, and our Business Continuity & Disaster Recovery Plan helps determine the exact configuration for your needs.
What kinds of servers do you deploy and provide maintenance services for?
Remote/cloud, physical, one server for many databases, one server for each database — we have expertise in a wide range of servers and can help find the perfect fit. We can also help consolidate your databases to save you money.
What are some ways that good Database Administration (DBA) services can save my company money?
One of the best ways managed database services can help is by improving the productivity of the people using your systems, primarily achieved through minimizing slowdowns and speeding up their ability to do their jobs. There may also be an opportunity to save money by consolidating your databases & related infrastructure – retiring old servers or reducing your cloud hosting costs.
What other value (besides saving money) does expert DBA services bring my company?
Risk mitigation by improving your data security is a substantial benefit of expert DBA services. Understanding and getting help applying best practices both within your databases and in the infrastructure surrounding them is key to a strong security stance. You can also free up your own IT team to focus on other areas (such as new technology advancements for your company).
