Let us talk about Your Company Database





Today most of the business is making a big difference in the entire processing of the company data due to the presence of the technology in the modern era of the world. If your company is using to make all things in the automated and all the data’s of the company are stored in your company database. As the time goes by and the amount of information that stored in your database doesn’t have enough database maybe it is the time that you must need to have the database services the bigger the better.

As the amount of customer and operational information stored by organizations continues to rise, so does the complexity of managing that data. Winxnet has database experts available to help with all aspects of data management, from database design to diagnostics and performance tuning, monitoring and ongoing remote administration.

SQL Server Health Check is a comprehensive diagnostic that identifies, assesses, and quantifies risk based on all factors that influence the availability and performance of SQL Server databases. Developed by Winxnet SQL Server experts, it evaluates SQL Server environments on 17 dimensions spanning five major areas: CPU, Memory, Disk, Configuration, and Application Performance.

The diagnostic yields health scores for each of these areas and provides detailed information about the strengths and weaknesses of the SQL Server environment. Our team of experts delivers a readout with key findings and specific recommendations for addressing each area of risk.

In most organizations the data that leaders need to make important business decisions does not come from any one system. Instead, it resides in disparate formats across multiple systems. While building a data warehouse and accessing it with an off-the-shelf business intelligence tool may seem like the right solution, these initiatives often fall short of expectations, due to high cost or lack of expertise.

Winxnet approaches business intelligence initiatives differently than most technology companies. Rather than starting with a specific technology solution, we start by helping your organization define the decisions that need to be made, the questions that need to be answered, and the metrics and measures involved in answering the questions. From there, we develop a technology solution that meets your specific needs within the confines of your budget.

Why IT Managed Services





More and more organisations are choosing to hire specialize IT Managed Services suppliers showing that these services are gaining popularity. It is quite possible that the primary reason organisations opt to outsource is that it is cost-effective however there are many other motivations and benefits which are not often mentioned.

Let us consider the needs that a company has when it comes to the provision of adequate IT Support for all their end-users. Typically, they will require at least a helpdesk that is preferably offered 24x7, proactive monitoring to provide alerts prior to the occurrence of issues and administration of all the hardware - servers, desktops, laptops, printers - software, et al. There is plenty more that goes into keeping the IT infrastructure functioning smoothly and all companies will not have the knowledge, time or skills necessary.

Is outsourcing the only course available? Of course not, there are a number of alternatives but one must check the viability of each of these solutions and choose whatever works best for your company. We will take a look in detail at a couple of options.

One method of providing the support is to hire qualified and experienced IT professionals who can manage the entire organisation's IT set-up. According to research, one IT person is sufficient per 40 personnel. Taking that at face value if a business were to have a one-man IT department in one of their smaller offices with less than 40 employees, they will face the following challenges. It is likely that he will get snowed under by the demands on his time as he faces certain time periods of constant demand. He will be forced to deal with dilemmas where he does not have the requisite know-how. If they do manage to get someone who is capable of handling the entire range of wide and varied IT problems, he will obviously come at a premium cost. There are the additional challenges of a lack of support when he is off on holiday or due to sickness or even when there are two pressing matters that he has to resolve.

Another method would be to partner with an IT company who sends in somebody as and when there is a need and pay them by the hour. This may seem to be an ideal situation however this too has its set of hassles. In this scenario, the arrangement becomes more profitable when the IT partner's resources spend more hours working on requests and hence, they could unnecessarily take longer to fix something. Additionally, as they are only called in for reactive support, the business find itself many times ending up with its systems going down and having to work against the clock to bring them up again whilst its entire set-up will not be receiving full, proper proactive support. There will be the costs associated with the loss of productivity of all employees affected by the downtime in addition to being billed to get everything back to normal. The total expenditure will end up being much higher than if the organisation had pre-emptively detected and rectified the issue. Also, as it is used only as a break-fix remedy, the supplier will have to wait for something to break prior to fixing it.
