Remote Database Administration

The Winxnet SQL Server Remote DBA Program enables companies to maintain complex SQL Server Database environments on a reduced budget. This Service provides ‘sleep-at-night’ security through a combination of Telephone Support, Web Based Support, Remote Monitoring and Proactive Administration.

In addition to the regular maintenance and support, you will be able to include one of our Database Administrator staff members in your regular IT meetings to ensure everyone on your team has the full picture. Our goal is to work with your staff to ensure they have the skills to manage your infrastructure long term.
