PostgreSQL Managed Service

WellData offers PostgreSQL management for constant proactive PostgreSQL database support. This service covers all your database’s business-as-usual (BAU) requirements on an ongoing basis.

We’re also able to provide a complete support package for not only your PostgreSQL Database, but also the full range of popular databases and servers, including MySQL, MariaDB,  LinuxUnix, Oracle, and SQL Server.

Our PostgreSQL managed services are based on a fixed-price concept and include, where needed, out-of-hours technical cover for your critical production systems.

Once you have selected the level of support and cover you need, you’ll never have to worry about resourcing BAU support again.

For full details, see Database and Server Managed Service.

Why Choose WellData’s MySQL Support?

As your data and, subsequently, your databases become more important, so do the skills and availability of PostgreSQL database support engineers.

Trying to find these scarce resources yourself can be time-consuming and tedious. Even if you do find the right resources, they’re often expensive and in high demand. Worse still, do you actually have the workload to keep these staff fully occupied? If not, they may leave to find more fast-paced work elsewhere, leaving you back at square one!

This is where WellData comes in. We provide the highest level of technical resources for even the smallest of our clients, who may only have a few critical databases. The cost of hiring even a single DBA is often beyond their budget.

For our larger clients with a multi-technology estate, we have the range of skills necessary to encompass all the support requirements needed at the highest possible skill levels. Providing true overnight cover for this multi-technology estate can now be achieved without the need for a huge, expensive in-house database support team.

We structure our PostgreSQL support services at a fixed price, once we know what will be under our care and what level of support you need.

And when you need project work performed, like builds, migrations, and consolidations, these are also quoted on a fixed price basis.

PostgreSQL Cloud Support

At some point, you will be thinking of migrating to the Cloud. Changing platforms in such a major way is not simple; a lot of thought and planning should go into the whys, wherefores, and methods of moving what is probably a business-critical system onto Cloud infrastructure.

This migration could be a full, partial, or hybrid cloud solution to AWS, AWS RDB.

We are well-placed to assist with this journey, from initial strategy to migration planning and then to final execution. Having performed a successful migration, we’re in the best position to provide the subsequent PostgreSQL cloud support, taking full advantage of the benefits of being cloud-based.

Support for Older PostgreSQL Versions

The current PostgreSQL is version 17. Support for version 11 ended on 9th November 2023.

When a database version comes to the end of its supported life, there are many reasons why it should be upgraded to a later, more featureful, and secure version supported by Oracle’s security patches and bug fixes.

Unfortunately, upgrading is not an option for some installations, but this is where our database managed services can help.  View a full list of PostgreSQL Database Versions and their expected support, or contact us to discuss your PostgreSQL database support needs.

PostgreSQL Database Consolidation

The number of databases in an organisation can grow relentlessly over time. This affects the cost of support and, to some extent, overall reliability. It then becomes necessary to consolidate these databases onto a smaller number of platforms, either physically or virtually.

However, the process of consolidating databases can present significant risks—change is risky! To reduce this risk, an organisation needs the resources, skills, and experience to perform the consolidation in a planned and controlled way. The problem is that any single organisation performs this type of exercise very rarely and probably doesn’t have the necessary resources, skills, or experience to handle it.

That is where our PostgreSQL consulting services can help. This is our bread-and-butter skill set; we’ve performed consolidations for many clients across a wide range of industries. If a specific consolidation has a difficult problem or challenge, there’s a very good chance that a member of our PostgreSQL consulting team has encountered it before.

"We had used WellData before, for work with upgrades and other standalone projects, so we knew they were good and very reliable. When it came to DBA outsourcing we were confident they would be the right team for the job."

High standard, professional service. I've worked with Welldata for a number of years and always found their DBA's to be knowledgeable and proactive. Throw any question at them and it will be resolved, it gives real peace of mind knowing you have a partner you can rely on from emergencies to general questions. They also like a challenge and we do throw a few curved balls at them.read more
