JD Edwards Database Management Services

Why Database Management

A company’s database is the most critical component of the business. If a business’s data is inaccessible – even temporarily – it can result in tens of thousands of dollars in lost wages and revenue. In an era where technology is constantly evolving, staying ahead of the curve is crucial for business success. GSI's JD Edwards Database Management Services are designed to help you navigate the complex landscape of modern database technologies, ensuring your enterprise systems remain robust, agile, and efficient.

Many growing companies that implement databases to support advanced software are often unprepared for the complexities of managing an enterprise-class database. The cost of hiring a qualified database administrator can be prohibitive especially for companies with a small technology footprint. Even companies with expertise on staff may have only a single qualified database administrator (DBA), making vacations or illness a very scary time for an organization – and the DBA.

At GSI, we have Certified Database Administrators that have extensive experience and certifications in Microsoft SQL Server, Oracle, and DB2. All of our services are provided remotely which reduces costs and allows us to have expertise available around the clock. Our DBAs provide custom solutions for:

Staff Augmentation o Vacation Support – If your only DBA is going on vacation, let us mind the store while they’re away.
