Virtual DBA Services
The Virtual-DBA (VDBA) solution from Bliss-Systems gives organisations all the benefits of a full-time Database Administrator without the usual costs and overheads involved.
The availability and integrity of your organisation’s data is of paramount importance. Any downtime for mission-critical systems, even just a matter of minutes or hours can have a significant impact.
VDBA reduces that risk to your business.

The need for a Database Administration service
The rapid rise in the volume of corporate data, databases and database estates means that security, high availability, monitoring and disaster recovery are more important than ever.
Increasingly, organisations have a DBA (Database Administrator) requirement but do not have the need (or the budget) for a full-time qualified resource.
The Virtual DBA Service accommodates those needs via regular planned activities as well as an SLA backed support package.
The benefits of VDBA
Extended Skills Availability
Database Administrators are technically qualified people dedicated to the maintenance of databases, including data quality, DR, HA and performance. However, there are times when your organisation will need technical or strategic skills outside of this technical arena, such as planning for GDPR, PCI Compliance, Data Protection, Systems integration and ISO accreditation. All of which require a different skillset.
Our Virtual DBA Service gives you the flexibility to call on any or all of these skills from our pool of expert consultants.
Cost Efficiency
Your costs are more efficient because you only pay for the time that you need a DBA and not for a permanent team member.
Access to Complimentary Resources
Database related work often requires skillsets or consultancy outside of typical DBA activities such as applications, cloud migration or virtualisation provisioning.
Working with Bliss-Systems will give your organisation access to knowledge and expertise from other industry professionals in related areas.
