5 Ways Fractional Support Scales Your Business

‍

‍The Challenge

‍

Data has become the crux of how businesses operate in our modern world. With all the nuances it comes along with, your business may need help implementing, managing, and monitoring your data.

‍

This is where DataStrike can help. 

‍

You may not have an Infrastructure that needs a full-time DBA, or you have an infrastructure that requires one or several DBAs. This is where the scalable DBA services at DataStrike can bring value in several scenarios.  Whether you are looking to fill a coverage gap or a skill gap, DataStrike can support your needs. We offer fractional resourcing across all of our technology support offerings meaning we will become a strategic extension of your team or service your database entirely, depending on your company's needs. Our offerings also include environmental assessments, systematic implementation, and adherence to responsible guidelines while maintaining and monitoring your systems 24x7x365. Here are 5 reasons to consider leveraging DataStrike for fractional resourcing.

The Solution
‍

By leveraging DataStrike’s fractional resourcing, you’ll see 5 benefits;

‍

1. Human Capital Expense Reduction‍

‍

During times of Economic instability, organizations are challenged with reducing staff but are required to keep the infrastructure optimized.  IT executives are challenged every day to innovate and maintain the technologies they have invested in.  Supporting innovation and maintenance is virtually impossible for IT leaders to accomplish with their annual budgets.  Maintaining IT infrastructures 24x7x365 without an MSP like DataStrike is not sustainable or economically feasible for the majority of organizations across the globe.  DataStrike has a proven delivery model that allows our engineers to work side by side with your team.  This extension of your internal team will bring tremendous technical expertise to the table and allow you and the organization to deploy a very mature support model that can scale to your needs.   

‍

2. Staff Burnout 

‍

Sometimes, your employees have more work than they can handle. Employee burnout and turnover may be the result. This can also mean losing organizational and proprietary knowledge – meaning you’re working harder to find new staff with missing skill sets. That may take up valuable company time now being prioritized for onboarding and training new employees. Fractionally outsourcing to DataStrike will help reduce their workload burden and minimize burnout and turnover. Your company can turn its attention to other areas where you excel and keep employees happy thanks to that reduced workload. 

‍

3. 24x7x365 Support

‍

When your system suffers from critical errors, it disrupts your business. Your business needs to prioritize your client base and worry less about the errors your systems could endure. Leave that to DataStrike. Minimizing your risk and downtime is our top priority. We will monitor and maintain your environment 24x7x365. DataStike will keep the lights on for you.

‍

4. Growth Optimization 

‍

Businesses experience fluctuating demand based on the time of year. Specifically, during these seasonal periods, companies may experience the year’s peak influx of data and informational transactions within a short timeframe – taxing your system’s capabilities. For example, if you’re a retail business, the holiday season (like Christmas) is when you experience spikes in activity. Your company may see an increase in revenue produced from expeditiously created data. DataStrike offers a roadmap to maximize system performance. If your business doesn’t have an in-house DBA, consider hiring fractionally to monitor, maintain, and optimize your systems, which leads to higher confidence in growing and managing your business.

‍

5. Value Proposition

‍

DataStike will bring value to your organization in a number of ways. Our contracts and SLAs guarantee flexibility, and the ability to scale with your organization. Whether you are in the cloud, on-prem, or running a hybrid infrastructure model, DataStrike has the team and expertise to support you 24x7x365.  Our multi-platform and vertical support bring new and fresh ideas to your technology platform.  DataStrike DBAs see hundreds of different environments, not just one, so we see things before most.  Direct-hire DBAs may prioritize maintaining current systems rather than familiarizing themselves with newer versions, updating functionality, or investing time in learning other platforms whose capabilities may be compatible with your business's growing requirements.
