Proactive monitoring
Availability, performance and error-rate monitoring with alert thresholds tuned to your systems, so the signal is real and gets acted on.
The systems your business runs on need someone whose job is keeping them healthy — not whoever is free when something breaks. We take on that responsibility: monitored, tuned, patched, backed up, and tested for recovery before you need it.
What we take on
Performance tuning
Query optimisation, indexing, and capacity planning. Most systems that feel slow are fixable without buying more hardware.
Backup and tested recovery
Backups configured to your retention requirement and — the part usually skipped — restores actually rehearsed, so recovery time is a measured number rather than a hope.
Patching and lifecycle
Security patches and version upgrades planned into maintenance windows, with unsupported versions flagged before they become an audit finding.
How we start
Health check
A review of the current estate: versions, configuration, backup state, and the risks carrying the most exposure right now.
Remediate
Close the urgent gaps first — usually backups that were never tested and access that was never revoked.
Manage
Ongoing management against agreed availability and response targets, reported monthly.
This fits when
- A core system slows down and nobody owns finding out why
- Backups are configured but a restore has never been rehearsed
- The person who understood the database has left
- Patching keeps slipping because there is no safe window and no plan
