Who We Are
What Makes Us Different?
We do three things better than anyone else out there:
- Data security – We use bank-level security. On top of the client security, we add our own two-factor authentication, network segmentation, enterprise firewalls, and employ bleeding-edge security tactics such as security software, silos, vaults, and more.
- We don’t just maintain your servers – we continuously optimize them. Every month your SQL Server will get better and we will prove it with comprehensive monthly reporting.
- Our SQL Server Health Check is the most comprehensive on the market – our audit reaches far beyond your SQL Server. We analyze:
- Are you on the right hardware?
- Have you selected the best AWS or Azure cloud instance?
- Have you selected the best storage options for your cloud storage?

Testimonials
The deep level of knowledge of MSSQL is incredible and the combined experience and expertise has been a huge asset. Additionally, the flexibility and professionalism throughout a difficult migration was highly appreciated.

With little notice Red9 was able to find and fix a number of different SQL misconfigurations and wasteful practices as our customer moved their SQL environment from a rack solution with Fiber SAN to the Azure cloud.

Red9’s cool confidence and eagerness to deliver results are surpassed only by their deep penetrating knowledge of SQL. Whether it's SQL design, development, optimization, or recovery, Red9 is a SQL Gem.

They have mastered the understanding of complex, heavy load TSQL transactions. If you would like to sleep better at night and know your database will be running well in the morning, then I would recommend finding a DBA company with the kind of skill set Red9 has proven time and time again.

"In just a few minutes, Red9 was able to find significant performance improvement opportunities in our database. These improvements were in areas we hadn’t even considered. We plan to continue to work with Red9 on a regular basis and continue to enjoy the benefits of their knowledge."
"After SQL Database query tuning – Our site is flying now. I have already have hired Red9 three times. I am very happy I found them!"
"Beyond deep technical expertise, communication is very important to us. Red9 was timely in responses, met set expectations and timelines, and kept us in the loop when an unexpected issue came up. I would absolutely recommend Red9."
