Database cost optimization

Turn database efficiency into customer savings.

A repeatable engagement for partners helping customers get more from their existing applications, infrastructure, and database licenses.

Keep the applications. Optimize the footprint.

Place EngineGrids between existing applications and databases, then use measured results to guide sizing.

Current environment

With EngineGrids

Clustered acceleration.

Serve more application queries across multiple Accelerators while reducing work on the database.

Three-node architecture: three independent Accelerators Application services connects through a redundant TCP load balancer to one of three active Accelerators in separate failure domains, then to the same Database endpoint.

Independent Accelerators behind an external TCP load balancer. Each instance maintains its local cache from database CDC. Health checks route new connections to healthy nodes; failed sessions reconnect.

Keep application code and data in place. Scale the Accelerator tier. Use measured results to size the database tier.

A repeatable engagement, from baseline to operation.

1

Establish the baseline

Capture workload demand, application performance, infrastructure costs, and licensing.

2

Evaluate acceleration

Use Performance Lab to compare the same workload with EngineGrids.

3

Design the target

Choose a database footprint that meets performance goals and build the customer business case.

4

Deploy and operate

Plan rollout, validate results, and establish ongoing monitoring and support.

Make the business case visible.

Database demand

Review CPU, I/O, memory and workload completion.

Infrastructure plan

Compare a proposed database footprint with your capacity and availability requirements.

Your cost model

Use your actual infrastructure prices, licence agreements and Accelerator costs.

A package your team can deliver.

  • Customer baseline and evaluation
  • Reference architecture and sizing plan
  • Infrastructure and licensing business case
  • Deployment and operations plan

Build your next engagement.

Bring a customer opportunity and shape the evaluation, deployment, and purchasing route together.
