WellData’s database and server managed services uses a proactive support model, rather than the conventional Break/Fix method used by many support companies.
We use a proactive approach to pre-empt avoidable failures before they occur. Substantial effort is put into comprehensive monitoring to ensure that developing problems are identified before they become issues.
Our monitoring goes far beyond simple availability checks and into areas of general performance like: memory use, locking, growth, throughput, equipment failures, and more. The list is comprehensive.

Although it is best practice to keep systems up to date for performance, features and, most particularly, security reasons, there are situations where this cannot be achieved.
WellData can take on the support of these out-of-maintenance systems, for your peace of mind. Although not supported by bug and feature releases from the original vendor, the systems can be kept functioning and can still be useful going forward.

Incidents can be raised from a number of sources: directly from clients, via monitoring systems or by the engineers themselves.
Incidents are responded to in a swift and prompt manner as agreed in the Service Level Agreement (SLA). There are defined fix or resolution plan times leading either to a resolution of the incident or the creation of a resolution plan.
If a resolution is not readily determined the incident is escalated to higher levels within both the client and WellData.

Service requests raised by our clients are acknowledged and reviewed within agreed SLAs.
Performance and timing of the request is determined on receipt and becomes the SLA for that request itself.
Many managed service requests cannot be actioned immediately and represent work items that need to be performed over an extended period of time. An example would be the installation of an application bug fix. These fixes can often lead to a whole series of actions being taken before the actual fix itself can be applied.
Service requests are tracked, monitored and reported from WellData’s ticketing system. Clients have access to this ticketing system so they can enter tickets directly and to track their progress.

Over and above the continuous monitoring a daily check is performed each working day as part of our managed service.
These checks cover areas such as: failed backups or jobs, unexpected growth rates or unusual consumption of system resources, including system specific checks discovered during on-boarding that need to be performed.
These checks ensure a continuous appraisal of the functioning of the systems under care, over and above its simple availability.
Daily checks often generate specific work items that need to be carried out in order to ensure the systems under care continue to operate at their peak.

Troubleshooting often starts with a monitoring system alarm and an issue raised by the client’s users.
Where a system is identified as deficient or failing, a troubleshooting analysis is performed to discover the root cause of the problem and recommend a resolution or route forward.
Problems requiring troubleshooting can come from all areas: performance, changes to growth rates, changes in use that result in performance or capacity issues, data locking issues, and many more.

At the initial on-boarding, a set of documentation is created to ensure our engineers fully understand the nature and character of the systems under our managed services support.
This documentation consists of an Operations Manual that documents access methods, security issues, any observations and peculiarities; any issues arising are entered into the WellData ticketing system for resolution.
It is this set of documentation that allows WellData to provide seamless, unparalleled cover for all the systems under our care.
