Hire a Remote DBA as Your SQL or MySql Consultants and Get These Benefits

Your company relies on your SQL Server or MySQL database for your inventory, decision making, customer records, and many other mission-critical components of your business. It serves as the foundation for all of your custom applications and software that keep your company running. But how many companies can afford to have a database expert on their staff? It is just not realistic, nor is it something you need full-time. This is the primary reason hiring a remote DBA (database administrator) is the best option for your business.

What Is the Difference Between MySQL and MS SQL Server?

If you are looking to add a new database system for your company, you will probably be using either MySQL or MS SQL Server. They are the most common relational database management systems. However, there are some significant differences. The most significant difference is this: 1. MySQL is open-source 2. MS SQL Server is developed by Microsoft.

MySQL Remote DBA Consultant helped the client to scale up

We got an urgent call from a new client that has many clients of its own. They do have a SaaS application with more than 1000 clients. Our consulting firm provides MySQL and MS SQL as remote dba services. They needed help with MySQL database right away. Imagine the client has SaaS app with more than 1000 clients of his own. For every client there is one dedicated database. Obviously, the client created a nightmare maintenance for himself. Just to spice up the situation every database seems different then the other one. Either the indexes are different, or in some cases some columns in certain tables are different. A Real mess!

A Custom Database – Why Does Your Business Need One?

Your business is unique, and that means you need solutions that are designed specifically for your company. So that part of the reason for a custom database is easy to understand. The problem is figuring out how to get a custom database developed when much of the software out there is designed with a one-size-fits-all attitude.
