SQL Server Offerings

SQL Server High Availability

DSP can improve the availability of your servers and databases, disguise the effects of hardware or software failure, and minimise downtime.

SQL Server Database Backup

We have SQL Server database backup and recovery down to a fine art. Our customers appreciate our expertise and proactive manner, and we in return seek to uphold our customer-first values.

SQL Server Disaster Recovery

Cloud-enabled SQL Server DR is more economical than traditional methods: there is no lead-time or capital outlay; no need for businesses to buy additional hardware,  or to have dedicated personnel.

SQL Server Migration

Since Microsoft Azure and Oracle Cloud's partnership announcement, moving your databases to Cloud has never been easier. Improve the performance, security, scalability, of your SQL Server platform.

SQL Server Upgrade

Upgrading your SQL Server databases does more than improving your security stature. Not upgrading regularly could lead you to miss out on enhanced features, suffer poor application performance, and pay more in support.

SQL Server Security

DSP's preventative security services include but are not limited to: Security Assessments, including SQL Server Health Checks; around-the-clock Auditing and Monitoring; Data Protection and Data Access Control. 

SQL Server Integration

Properly managed database processes can make the difference between a challenging user experience and an efficiently run estate, and a database integration could revolutionise the way you use your data.

Legacy Application Modernisation and Support

Many companies are running applications that were fit for purpose 20 years ago, but are now unable to meet business needs. These applications can over-complicate your estate and drive up costs.

PCI Compliance

If you're looking to run PCI, DSP can help ensure that you comply with PCI DSS regulations so your data is kept compliant, legal and secure.

 

SQL Server Performance Tuning

A simple SQL Server performance tuning can speed up your application significantly and ensure that it is capable of growing with your business requirements.

Serverless Computing

Serverless Computing allows for fully managed code execution by a Cloud partner; this reduces the administrative tasks of developers and allows them to focus on the innovation that drives their business. 

SQL Managed Instance

Migrate your databases to Azure to experience the rich SQL Server programming surface area in the cloud, as well as the operational and financial benefits of the intelligent, fully-managed Azure SQL Database.
