Tuning

Performance can be an issue on any database application, large or small. On large databases even mundane tasks can become performance critical. Tuning requires experience and insight, and is often needed both quickly and accurately. You can get hints on a few topics from the internet, but they don't cover every aspect of the problems you face.

2ndQuadrant can provide tuning services in a variety of ways. Let us help you get your applications running smoothly, on-time and on-budget.

"I found their knowledge of Postgres to be quite astounding; within a short time many of our frequently executed queries were 1000 times faster. The best part was that I was given a good foundation of knowledge to do this myself using freely available tools."

Jason, South African Postgres Sysadmin, recent client (2008)
