Case Study: Thermon achieves 24×7×365 database coverage and cost savings with Datavail Database Services

Thermon - Customer Case Study

Thermon, a medium-enterprise industrial manufacturer, engaged Datavail Database Services to address high DBA costs, limited M–F 8–5 coverage, and concerns about administration quality, turnover and burnout. Thermon sought 24×7×365 global database coverage and more reliable, higher-quality database administration.

Datavail delivered a managed database program—combining remote and onsite database management, upgrades and migrations, assessments/health checks, and performance tuning—to provide around‑the‑clock support. As a result, Datavail lowered Thermon’s database administration costs (saving about 5–10% with remote services), dramatically improved DBA coverage and expertise, and greatly improved database availability, reliability and performance while enabling Thermon to reallocate and retain staff.
