Remote Database Training vs Database Support Services
In the past few weeks our entire world has been turned up-side-down: lockdown, remote working, home-schooling, are just some of the main changes to our daily life, changes that we had to be quick to implement and learn how to live with.
During this time of adjustment, it is normal that deadlines might slip, that tasks might be postponed or forgotten, and that the focus stays on critical chores.
However, it would be a mistake to believe that database management is not one of those critical chores or that simply maintaining the basics of database management would be enough.
Remote Database Training can provide excellent options
In fact, it’s quite the opposite.
The consequences of database failure can be very dire and the technological landscape, especially in a world that is moving to remote working, is in constant evolution.
Covering the basics is simply not enough, database management requires constant training and up-skilling.
Luckily, working remotely doesn’t mean that you can’t access excellent levels of remote database training: just in the past few weeks one of our DBAs, Annette Allen, has been presenting at a couple of online events:
- Azure Global Bootcamp
- DataWeekender
You can follow the links to find out more about the events and access the material.

Better Continuity
High churn of in-house DBA personnel leads to poor knowledge-transfer and continuity.
By contrast our DBAs stay with us for many years, provide a continuous service and grow an indepth understanding of your systems and needs.
