Database Administration (DBA)

DATABASE ADMINISTRATION (DBA)

The capabilities, complexities, and costs associated with relational database management systems (RDBMS) along with their corresponding applications have grown exponentially since E.F. Codd first developed the theory of relational databases at IBM in 1970. For the past 20 years BoxTechs has provided superior database administration (DBA) support to allow our clients to take full advantage of these systems in a productive and cost-effective manner.

We have extensive experience in multiple RDBMS systems on numerous platforms in on-premises, hosted, and cloud environments. We provide full systems support: maintenance (O/S, Application, RDBMS), monitoring, performance tuning, backups, disaster recovery (DR), high availability (HA), patching and upgrades.

Give us a call or send us an email so we can start down the path of working together to keep your databases running with optimal efficiency. We look forward to working with you!
