A proper database with backups, in place of a pile of spreadsheets.

Common problems

01

Spreadsheets as a database

Ten thousand rows, five editors and a formula someone broke last month.

02

Everything is slow

Pages and reports take seconds to load because the queries were never tuned.

03

No tested backup

Backups exist in theory, but nobody has ever tried restoring one.

What's included

  • Database design and schema planning
  • Moving from spreadsheets or Airtable to a real database
  • PostgreSQL, MySQL, MongoDB, Supabase and Firebase
  • Speed fixes: indexes, slow queries and caching
  • Automatic backups with tested restores
  • User roles, access control and encryption
  • Data cleaning, de-duplication and merging
  • Monitoring and ongoing maintenance
