Managed Database Service
Losing access to the critical information you and your customers rely on can be disastrous. Our Managed Database Service is designed to keep your database in peak shape – allowing you to focus on what matters.
Our standard Managed Database Service looks after the day to day running, maintenance and backup of your database. We can also custom build a database to your requirements with our optional Relational Database Management Systems (RDBMS) design, implementation and consultancy services.
The benefits:
- Stability: always have access to your critical information
- Security: protect your data from loss or corruption with our regular backups
- Performance: keep your database running at its peak with our database housekeeping
- Efficiency: resolve any issues quickly and effectively
- Expert support: prevent any outages with our proactive support and 24/7 monitoring
