Linux offers a rich and diverse set of options when it comes to database hosting. The AlwaysLinux team are well versed in configuring, managing and supporting Linux-based database servers to accomodate important client data.
A number of open source database platforms exist, and the crucial initial step is to decide which platform is most appropriate for the job in hand. Solutions with just a few hundred to many millions of records can be implemented with the appropriate pre-planning and database design.
Once established, correct management of the database ensures that certain data can only be accessed internally, between offices across a WAN, or be made available for general access via the Internet.
In summary, we offer expertise in:
- Linux database server setup and configuration
- Linux database optimisation, reindexing, and recovery from corruption
