Overview
A managed-service style engagement: keep BPKD's databases healthy, available, and audit-ready every day, with no surprises.
Approach
- Daily monitoring to catch anomalies before users notice them.
- Regular performance tuning to keep workloads ahead of bottlenecks.
- Scheduled backups, with periodic recovery drills to verify restore time.
- Disciplined patching and upgrade cycles to maintain security posture and vendor compatibility.
- Active maintenance of the standby database — synchronization checks and replication lag monitoring.
- Documented monthly maintenance reports covering upgrades, corrective actions, and findings.
Outcome
A predictable, auditable database operation. The standby was demonstrably ready to take over, and monthly reporting gave leadership a clear picture of system health.
