The management, security and availability of mission-critical data are vital to all organizational processes across all businesses. The quality of database management can be linked, ultimately, to customer satisfaction. Bottlenecks that lead to breaches in security or system down-time can be disastrous to a relationship with a customer. For such reasons, companies turn to remote DBA as an effective way of managing its increasingly important data and information resources.

By leveraging database outsourcing through a remote database administrator (remote DBA), businesses can experience greater ROI and focus on core competencies, even as databases continue to increase in complexity. Some of the key benefits of Remote DBA are:

* 24x7 proactive, remote database support and maintenance at the fraction of the cost of a full-time, in-house resource

* Direct contact with expert, certified database administrators

* Access to custom technology, innovation, and processes to best optimize your database environments

* Increased productivity and the reduced cost of enterprise computing, combined with the risk mitigation of on-shore support

* Best practices leveraged across customer base

* Multiple platform support (Oracle, Microsoft SQL, MySQL, PostgreSQL, Sybase and AWS, etc.)
