The use of data for effective decision making

Many businesses rely extensively on the innovative leverage of their data to guide their decision making.

It’s therefore important that any data held by a company meets the needs of the decision makers and also is in line with the company’s policies.

Business Intelligence involves using data for decision making. Business intelligence should make it easy for decision-makers at all levels in a company to access, analyse, interpret, and act on information. In order to support good decision making, data and the information generated from it needs to be easily available in an intuitive way.

In today’s business environment, storing, accumulating, managing and accessing data efficiently in a secure environment is a specialist job.

Who are DBAs and what do they do?

DBAs or database administrators are the people in charge of a company’s database strategy. This can include the development design, implementation, monitoring and performance improvement of databases. In some companies they also have responsibility for database security.

So therefore, DBAs are highly skilled personnel, an experienced DBA is usually a ‘high ticket’ employee.

Is a DBA a resource that can be successfully outsourced?

All companies in the current economic climate are looking to outsource where ever they can. Database administration outsourcing can help organisations move through periods when the business and therefore the database requirements are growing, especially when IT budgets are tight or when the expertise required is not readily available.

It is inevitable that database capacities and the complexities will markedly increase, as will the way in which information is used. It therefore seems logical to outsource the DBA function.
Not only to reduce costs, but to benefit from high level of skills and experience, and to have the reassurance of 24/7 maintenance, support and security of your company’s databases.
