Proactive Daily Care
Health checks, backup verification, patching, index and statistics maintenance, and capacity reviews run on a schedule, so problems are caught while they are still small.
Database Solutions
Remote DBA Services
Ongoing Database Administration Without Adding Headcount
Remote DBA is an ongoing managed service in which our team takes responsibility for the daily care of your databases. It suits organizations that need senior DBA skills across several platforms but not a full-time hire for each.
What We Deliver
Where We Make the Difference
Many organizations cannot justify, or cannot find, a full-time DBA for every platform they run. Routine care then slips until something fails. Our Remote DBA team handles the daily work, from backups and patching to performance, and gives you one accountable partner for database health.
Incident Response
When something breaks, DBAs who already know your environment investigate, restore service, and document the root cause, within the coverage hours set in your agreement.
Many Platforms, One Team
One service covers SQL Server, Oracle, PostgreSQL, MySQL, and managed cloud databases, so you avoid recruiting and retaining a separate specialist for each platform.
Predictable Cost
A predictable monthly fee, based on the size and criticality of your estate, replaces the cost and risk of hiring, training, and retaining full-time DBA staff.
Our Approach
How We Deliver Remote DBA Services
Step 1: Onboard and Assess
We document your architecture, review backups and security, install monitoring, and record a health baseline so both sides know where things stand on day one.
Step 2: Agree the Runbook
Together we define which tasks we own, how alerts escalate, who approves changes, and how we communicate with your team during an incident.
Step 3: Run Steady-State Care
Our DBAs carry out scheduled maintenance, respond to alerts and requests, and keep every managed database patched, backed up, and within capacity.
Step 4: Report and Advise
Regular reviews cover health trends, incidents, and upcoming risks such as end-of-support dates, with recommendations your leadership can plan around.
What hours does the Remote DBA service cover?
Coverage is set in your agreement and matched to how critical your databases are. We agree hours, escalation paths, and response expectations in writing before the service starts.
Do we lose control of our databases?
No. You keep ownership and access, and changes follow the approval rules agreed during onboarding. We work inside your change process, not around it.
How is Remote DBA different from database support?
Remote DBA is proactive: we own routine administration and keep databases healthy day to day. Database support is expert help your own team calls in when a problem is beyond them.
Can we start with just a few databases?
Yes. Starting with your most critical systems and adding more once the working relationship is established is a sensible way to begin. Onboarding follows the same steps either way.
