A large pharmaceutical company had more than 200 database instances on MS SQL, MySQL and Oracle. The data size was massive. Due to their distributed environment and the number of databases, there were issues with performance and availability.

We provided them managed services for monitoring, performance tuning and continuous availability. We put together a team of database experts in a combination of on-premise and back-office personnel and assumed the entire responsibility of managing all their databases.

The end result was that

• We were able to deliver a response time improvement of up to 300% over a period of time.
• With a small team of 3 people, we were able to bring down their cost of database management to a large extent.
• Application disruptions due to unplanned database outages were virtually eliminated.
