Database, know some of the key tips for this management shared by our specialist Carlos Arias, Data Center Services Supervisor at Anida Latam:
Security
Sometimes there are many users with permissions that they should not have, which can intervene in the database and generate inconsistencies.
Installation
In companies, it is common to see errors in the way the database is installed and configured. There are best practices according to the different engines, which companies do not always follow, which then generates problems and requires "a posteriori" a new configuration, causing a lot of unavailability.
Space
One of the typical problems that companies complain about when faced with database management is the lack of space.
Performance
One of the biggest "headaches" that companies have is that their database is slow. In this sense, an expert database administrator can do a thorough follow-up and detect if there are development problems when it comes to scripting or queries (instructive scripts).
High availability
There are different ways to manage the high availability of the database, in the cloud and on premise. Many customers do not have this service, so when the engine crashes, they are left without any kind of service.
"Finally, a fundamental issue is that, even when the company has an external provider monitoring its database, this does not always guarantee that it will not continue to face crashes. That is why it is so important to define correctly which provider we trust, because although some do solve problems at the time, they do it once they occur because their approach is still reactive", emphasizes the Anida Latam executive.
In summary, good database management is essential for the success of any company that handles large amounts of information. The implementation of security measures, the regularization of information, the optimization of queries and the automation of processes are some of the tips that can help in this process. In addition, the use of specialized technological tools can simplify the task and reduce errors. By applying these tips, companies can guarantee the integrity and availability of their information and gain competitive advantages in the market.
