What does database work cost?

Engagements start from $4,500. Audits and tuning sit at the lower end, while full redesigns with data migration cost more. We quote a fixed price within 24 hours.

Will there be downtime?

We plan changes to avoid it, using expand-and-contract migrations and online index builds. Where a short window is unavoidable, we schedule it with you in advance.

Do you need access to production data?

Read access to schemas and query stats is usually enough. When we need real data, we work under NDA on anonymized copies wherever possible.
