There are 3 primary components of
the TAS database server management
service: the database setup; database
audit; recurring and on demand database
services. Any or all of these components
can be undertaken by TAS professional
services based upon your unique system
and business needs.
Database
Setup
The setup will be tailored to your
specific system and business needs.
The normal setup will include such
tasks as:
Database
Audit (SQL Server & Sybase)
This service gathers the necessary
information to optimise your system's
operation and determine the procedures
to maintain it at that peak level.
A detailed inventory of the SQL Server or Sybase
system and all databases is taken.
The audit provides a baseline report
of how your SQL or Sybase system looks now,
and will recommend any modifications
that might be beneficial to your
system's architecture, performance,
security or any setup work that goes
beyond what is normally provided.
The audit also allows TAS to inform
you of any bugs or security patches
that are applicable to your operating
system and databases as they are
released.
Finally, the audit provides the
means for TAS to recommend specific
services (consistent with TAS Best
Practices) to optimise the management
and performance of your database
server.
A list of the audit checks that are performed and a sample audit report skeleton are included in the attached files.
Sybase to SQL Server Conversions
Where can TAS help you?
- Aging Sybase deployments keeping you up at night?
- Do you have services running on non supported versions of Sybase?
- Are your support costs growing out of control?
- Are you avoiding the effort to upgrade aging Sybase deployments?
- Are you finding it hard to find and keep Sybase DBA resources?
Would you like to:
- Reduce the TCO of your database infrastructure?

Let TAS help you migrate to SQL Server 2005.
TAS has developed a conversion methodology and conversion assistant tool that automatically converts on average over 60% of your database whilst also isolating potential code problems for review. TAS works closely with Microsoft on database cross platforming validating our conversion tool and methodology with Microsoft.
Recurring
and On Demand Database Services
The recurring and on demand database services can be tailored to suit your needs.
Services include:
- SQL Server & Sybase Audits
- SQL Server & Sybase security reviews
- SQL Server Mentoring
- SQL Server & Sybase Health Check monitoring (let us be your DBA or assist your existing DBA).
TAS works with your internal database administration team or acts as a on call database administration team for your company.
The premier service is our Health Check service which involves TAS loading health check and statistics packages on your servers. TAS will then schedule health check runs against your databases at agreed intervals ranging from as little as once a month through to 7 days a week or multiple times a day. The checks performed each time can be found in . TAS will then review the health check and notify you of any current or predicted problems for your attention. Should you not be able to address the problem, TAS can address it on your behalf. TAS will then send you a summary report of findings once a week. The statistical database will provide you with summary usage information of your database indicating what and where your database is being utilised.
