PCA provides expert SQL Server database engineering audits and re-engineering services to insure optimal MS SQL Server performance, reliability and data integrity.  We know what to look for, and how to apply the most effective remedial database engineering techniques to speed up and stabilize your MS SQL Server Business Application.

A SQL Server database schema is a lot like the electrical panel in your home: with proper planning and engineering, your lights and appliances will work when needed, the breakers will never become over-loaded, and you will have plenty of room to add new breakers into the panel to support future electricity needs.  Poorly designed, electrical current is unreliable, fuses blow, adding new breakers is expensive because no one can understand which wires lead to which rooms and appliances, and you may have a real fire hazard on your hands!

SQL Server can slow down and become unreliable as the number of users increase or the size of the database grows.  The first instinct is to simply throw more money at the server hardware. With the database design as the root cause however, this usually results in minimal, incremental improvements in database performance. IT IS ALMOST ALWAYS THE CASE that deficient database design issues are the root-cause of poor performance and poor data integrity, which can include one or more of the following:

PCA has extensive experience tuning SQL Server applications for optimal performance and reliability. Our expert database engineers can find the SQL Server slowdowns and apply proven remedial database design techniques to substantially increase database performance and improve data integrity.

If your SQL Server database solution is up and running, but you are experiencing significant data reliability and/or performance problems, PCA can help you discover the underlying design and/or implementation causes, and provide proven SQL Server Performance Optimization techniques to improve overall system performance and reliability.
