Database Support & Platform LongevityExpert-staffed managed support covering incident response, performance tuning, proactive monitoring, and IBM liaison. Available in three tiers to suit your organisation’s needs.
Modern web GUI for legacy PureData hardware, plus optional OS hardening that containerises the vulnerable RHEL6 host inside a patched Enterprise Linux 9 shell.
Secure data erasure, factory reset, and system preparation for reuse or recycling. Forensic-grade data destruction performed by engineers who know Netezza at every level.
Reliable, auditable data movement between Netezza systems and across platforms. Configured once, monitored continuously, with full alerting on lag or failure.
Enterprise-grade user provisioning and privilege management. Automate the auditable parts of access management and integrate with your directory services.
Proactive system health, workload governance, and automated housekeeping. SuperTuning identifies performance gains your team does not have time to find manually.
A structured, independent audit of your database environment. We assess configuration, performance, security posture, and operational risk, and deliver a clear, prioritised action plan.
Download and run a free diagnostic binary on your Netezza or CP4D system. Email the output to Smart Associates and receive a detailed health check report at no cost.
