DB2, MySQL, and Postgres to name a few. Our database services also include several outstanding
Database and SQL courses, and a graphical Performance and Tuning database product called SQL
Shot for Sybase, SQL Server and Oracle DBMS platforms. We are the authors of Sybase’s
performance and tuning and physical database design methodologies (and courseware) and some of
our expert data professionals are noted authors of bestselling books such as ‘SQL Server 2000
Unleashed’, ‘SQL Server 2005 Unleashed’, ‘SQL Server 2008 R2 Unleashed’, ‘Sybase SQL Server 11
Unleashed’, ‘SQL Server High Availability’, ‘Cryptography in the Database’ and ‘ADO.Net in 24 Hours’.

High Availability & Continuous
Operation
Database Architechs is showcasing its
expanding high-availability service
capability by offering short (mini) high-
availability assessment projects and full
(complex) high-availability implementation
projects to move your critical operations to
new levels of continuous operation. Five-
9’s are frequently attained in different
configurations. Our expertise allows us to
build very efficient high-availability
architectures using technologies such as
Clustering, Virtual Servers, Data
Replication, Database Mirroring, and
Database Snapshots.
Database Security and
Encryption
Database Architechs also offers a wide
variety of services related to the security
of information. We often work in other
areas as well; it is impossible to secure
the core if the perimeter is poorly defined.
Our analysis generally starts with the
information you want to secure before
moving on to the review of all security and
control issues that exist at each level of
your infrastructure. We pride ourselves for
having a practical, results-oriented
approach to threats and risks.

Performance & Tuning
Database Architechs is proud to have in
its team some of the world’s best experts
in database performance and tuning, and
performance engineering. This includes
Microsoft SQL Server, Sybase Adaptive
Server, Oracle, and DB2. As part of any
P&T engagement, we use a detailed
performance and tuning methodology that
has been developed over many years to
offer predefined deliverables that
maximize the end-result of our customers.
Typically, our results include an
improvement in database throughput
ranging from 100% to 750% as well as a
massive reduction in response times. All
of our P&T experts are certified in at least
one database platform.
Database Architechs frequently works
hand-in-hand with the key leaders of such
powerful technologies as SSD/RAM disks
providers to accelerate database engine
performance far beyond what is usually
feasible. These partnerships often include
undertaking extensive benchmarking with
a variety of different database topologies.
For more information on our recent
benchmarking results, please review the
white papers that Database Architechs
has made available.
Performance & Tuning Tools
We have also had
the privilege of
developing our own
set of graphic
performance and tuning tools. SQL Shot
exists for Sybase, for Oracle, and,
recently, for Microsoft SQL Server as
well.
These tools are extremely helpful tool for
isolating and resolving the most difficult
performance and blocking and/or locking
issues.
This Performance and Tuning Tool will be installed and
used during the assessment. At the engagement’s end,
we can either uninstall it, if you wish or keep it installed to
let you continue to evaluate it.
A Free SQL Shot for Microsoft SQL Server
evaluation copy is included in
“Microsoft SQL Server 2008 R2 Unleashed’
best-selling book from SAMS.
