DataStrike Experiences Significant Growth in Database Management
DataStrike, established as a leader in managed data infrastructure services, has set the bar higher by announcing a staggering
600% increase in its open-source database management business within just six months. This explosive growth exemplifies the escalating demand for PostgreSQL expertise as enterprises transition away from traditional database systems towards more adaptable, open-source solutions.
This surge in demand has prompted DataStrike to bolster its team by
doubling the number of database management professionals, specifically focusing on individuals certified in PostgreSQL. With this strategic move, the company is positioning itself as the go-to partner for businesses seeking effective open-source database solutions.
The rising popularity of PostgreSQL is underscored by a recent
2023 Stack Overflow survey, which revealed that PostgreSQL has gained a foothold as the most-used database among professional developers, with
49% reporting extensive experience with it. Furthermore, the latest findings in the
State of PostgreSQL report confirm that
51% of organizations have embraced PostgreSQL, showcasing its growing significance in the industry.
Rob Brown, President and COO of DataStrike, stated, “In the past year, we have seen an unprecedented rise in demand for our database management services due to an increasing number of clients seeking support for open-source platforms like PostgreSQL. As organizations realize they lack the in-house resources to effectively manage these complex projects, DataStrike steps in to provide comprehensive and flexible solutions that unlock the full potential of their data.”
DataStrike employs a
fractional support model, allowing clients to access scalable and cost-effective data management solutions across various platforms. Their expertise spans leading database systems, including Oracle, SQL Server, MariaDB, MySQL, MongoDB, AWS Redshift, and SAP Hana. This model not only ensures agility and efficiency but also facilitates everything from full-scale database migrations to performance tuning and long-term optimization—all under a single, straightforward agreement.
A recent survey conducted by DataStrike with nearly
200 IT leaders highlighted a concerning trend:
54% expressed lacking the resources and tools necessary for managing the evolving demands of data infrastructure. Most respondents indicated that they are tasked with managing multiple database platforms, typically across an average of two cloud environments. These insights underline a broader shift towards outsourcing critical operations, with numerous organizations opting for managed service providers (MSPs) to fill competency gaps and minimize overhead costs.
The focus on PostgreSQL as a strategic asset is expected to endure as companies recognize its advantages in creating flexible, open-source architectures. DataStrike’s proactive approach to meeting this demand positions it favorably within a competitive landscape, supplying businesses with the expertise needed to navigate the complexities of modern data management efficiently.
