For most organisations, database servers are a significant investment and it's crucial to ensure you are getting the most out of your investment.
Our engineers can measure the efficiency of your database servers to see if the system is operating at its best potential. Our checks take into account various factors, such as:
​
- Is the database and operating system properly tuned?
- Are there enough hardware resources for the different applications?
- Is your high availability and DR functioning and fit for purpose?
- Are critical administrative utilities run regularly? - Have the appropriate indexes been created?
- Is there sufficient support and documentation of the system?
