How To Process Data Complexities

BestIT’s data processing services include:

Database Support & Performance

Data Integration & Operations

Data Archival & Retention

Database Support & Performance

A database requires constant TLC to be operating at the best level of performance and satisfaction. Standard resolution of production database includes access rights, backup and restore requests, data field change, performance issues, space availability (or lack thereof).

The basic support usually includes periodic and on-demand performance tuning of database and server memory, CPU, caching along with ongoing recommendations to maximize hardware usage.

Recommendations to fine tune production instances (databases and applications) – architectural, operational and performance recommendations – are usually provided as needed.

Standard DBA support for database instances for development efforts includes patching, software version upgrades, backups and migration of changes to production.

BestIT will provide:

24x7x365 managed database service support for the customer’s Oracle and Grid Control environment.
24×7 production database support services. Production database down issues: backup and recovery; bug fix and patching; data integrity and constraint violations; data and transaction locking; SQL query performance and tuning; data encryption; CPU patches; database upgrade.
Backup, patch and upgrade production and development databases on quarterly basis or as required by manufacturer software releases.

BestIT will plan and deploy updates, patches, and security updates for your database servers and platforms, including testing and roll back planning for all standard database platforms.

Data Integration & Operations

The use of data in applications and various transactions implies that data elements are integrated in logical and physical layers of data architecture.

The integrated data is then used in inbound and outbound flows of processing. With the primary responsibilities of IT operations come the integration, management and processing of the data. Policies and procedures, repositories, backups and archival,
validation and testing, restoring and cleansing the data are just a few of the various tasks and activities managed by operations.

The quality and discipline displayed in performing those functions is a key factor in preserving the accuracy and availability of the data to the users and processes.

Security (both passive and pro-active) of the data is as critical as the data is to your business, its value (to recreate or cleanse) and its constraints (regulatory, disclosures).

BestIT approaches data management and operations from a holistic point of view, as operations management is an integrated discipline: processes and guidelines or tools are used across the entire operations scope; altering one process can cause a “butterfly” impact to the final value of a data field.
Our managed services, and in particular, data services, include security and integrity management with discovery and assessments, diagnostic and remediation as well as continuous monitoring and alerts.

The BestIT security team assesses how much compliance and security you need, and determines how much effort is required to achieve and maintain your desired security level.

Data Archival & Retention

In today’s complex regulatory environment, critical data must be retained for extended periods for audit or forensic purposes.

BestIT can also provide extended data retention services that ensure your data is protected and available for months or even years through secure, off-site archiving. The effectiveness of the backup and retention efforts is only as good as the capacity to restore and reuse the data. Periodic and random restore tests and validation are necessary to maintain an acceptable level of effective data archival performance.

The delay to restore and make available data upon request is the largest impact of the cost of unavailability. In some cases data which have been archived for a long time (especially on magnetic support) cannot be restored at all, which makes the whole cost of archiving, retaining and restoring become a waste.

BestIT standard archival and retention services include regular database recovery test to ensure backed up data is valid and recoverable.

Our toolkit also includes:
• Veeam Backup Application
• Nimble Storage Software

Data integrity and data security enable the preservation of updates and key information, protecting the data against illegitimate accesses and modifications.

Data archival and retention are about how you store, manage and restore the data based on your needs and external constraints (disclosure regulations, etc.).
