ASSESSMENT

Do You Know Where You Are?

Are you curious or worried about where your SQL Server environment stands – good or bad – and where to focus attention for improvement? Is something a little off? Having availability or performance problems? Going to change architectures or migrate/upgrade and need to know where you are to plan where you are going properly? Trust SQLHA^® to assess and tell you where you are today and where you need to go tomorrow.

CUSTOM, NOT GENERIC

The Right Information Matters

Anyone can come into your environment, run a scripts or some utility (which they may or may not have even written), and spit out a canned report that is the same for every customer. That report contains generic recommendations that may not even apply to your environment, or worse, have old and outdated best practices that are no longer valid. That is not the SQLHA^® way. Each report is custom for you since every customer is unique.

TIME IS OF THE ESSENCE

Information When You Need It

Having the right information helps you make informed decisions. For example, is your environment sized properly? On premises or in the cloud, the wrong size means performance suffers or you are paying too much for unused resources. Our assessments can help you figure out exactly what you need.

METHODOLOGY

Our Approach

A SQLHA^® assessment starts with understanding the customer, their requirements, as well as their business. We then take a comprehensive look across the entire stack – not just SQL Server. Network, storage, compute, virtualization, cloud, sizing, physical, applications, availability, and more … it all matters. We can also do a focused assessment on a specific aspect of your environment such as your availability.

ASSESSMENT REPORT

The Report

Once we have the information, we take the technical and non-technical into account when analyzing to build specific, actionable recommendations taking into account your unique parameters. We will tell you what is good, what is bad, and what might need just a little adjustment. Our assessments can inform you where to best spend your IT budgets.
