Database Management
Databases that stay fast and tidy.
Database design, performance tuning, migrations between systems, backups and reporting on MySQL, PostgreSQL, MongoDB and SQLite.
Our approach
Most database problems show up as something else: a slow page, a report that takes minutes, or numbers that don’t add up. We look underneath and fix the cause.
For new projects, we spend time on the data model early. It’s much cheaper to get right at the start than to untangle later.

Process
How a project runs.
Four stages, the same for a five-page website or a full application.
Step 01
Conversation
We talk through your business, your customers and what the project needs to achieve, and look at anything you already have.
Step 02
Proposal
You get a written scope, timeline and price. Nothing starts until you have approved it.
Step 03
Build and review
We work in short cycles and show you working software as we go, so there are no surprises at the end.
Step 04
Launch and support
We deploy, check everything in production and stay on for fixes, updates and improvements.
Questions
About Database Management
The questions we hear most about this service.
Our application has become slow. Can you help?
Often the database is the cause. We find the slowest queries, check the indexes and structure, and fix the biggest problems first.
Can you move our data to a new system?
Yes. Migrations are planned with checks at each step and a way to roll back, so nothing is lost on the way.
Which databases do you work with?
Mostly MySQL, PostgreSQL, MongoDB and SQLite. We'll recommend one based on your data and how it's used.
