Database Managed Service (MirDB)
Continuous management of your databases: more than 50 parameters under control — performance, backup, security, and licensing — managed over time
A critical database is not managed from one emergency to the next: it needs continuous oversight. MirDB is Miriade's managed service for your databases: continuous management that keeps more than 50 parameters under control — performance, storage, backup, security, and licensing — backed by specialist DBA expertise. It is not one-off tuning, but reliability and operational continuity sustained over time, with specific expertise in Oracle and Amazon RDS environments. And we don't stop there: we also work on PostgreSQL, Microsoft SQL Server, MySQL/MariaDB, MongoDB/DocumentDB, Elasticsearch/OpenSearch, and Redis.
The service in brief
- Service
- Managed service for continuous database management.
- When you need it
- Business-critical databases that require management and reliability over time, not just emergency fixes.
- R.O.C.E. phase
- Control.
- Contexts
- Relevant both for stability and incidents and for performance and cost control.
- Line
- Managed services, together with MirAI and MirSRE.
- Scope
- Business-critical databases — performance, backup, security, licensing — with DBA expertise.
- Distinct from
- One-off tuning, MirSRE (application reliability), and Cloud Managed Operations (infrastructure).
When a database is too critical to be left alone
The database is often the heart of production systems: without methodical oversight, problems build up silently until an incident occurs.
More than 50 parameters under control
The service monitors the key dimensions of the database — including performance and queries, space and storage, backup and restore, availability, security and access, licensing and compliance — and turns monitoring into concrete action:
Continuous management
Ongoing oversight and operational management of business-critical databases: rather than waiting for a failure, we keep the system under control.
Tuning and performance
Optimization of parameters, indexes, and execution plans as a continuous activity: faster response times and lower resource consumption.
Backup and continuity
Oversight of backup and restore, so you don't find out too late that a “successful” backup cannot actually be restored.
Oracle licensing
Oracle license compliance analysis and optimization, to reduce costs and contractual risk.
Oracle on Amazon RDS
Replatforming of Oracle instances to Amazon RDS (BYOL or License Included) and Safe RDS Upgrade with load testing before production.
Continuous database management
MirDB manages databases continuously. It is not one-off tuning.
Success stories
Documented Miriade engagements on databases: DBA expertise applied to real production cases.
Oracle NOLOGGING: the backup that doesn't restore
The backup was reported as successful, but on restore the data was unusable: a hidden risk to be defused.

Tools and platforms we use to manage our customers' databases — from relational and NoSQL engines to backup, replication, and cloud.
From recovery to continuous management
This area spans from immediate recovery (Recover) to continuous management (Control). MirDB is the managed service dedicated to the database, and it also serves organizations that need to keep performance and costs under control.

You are hereFrequently asked questions
What is MirDB?
It is Miriade's managed service for databases: continuous management that keeps more than 50 parameters under control, backed by specialist DBA expertise.
How is it different from database tuning?
Tuning is a bounded engagement; MirDB is continuous management that includes tuning but, above all, monitors, prevents, and manages databases over time.
How does it differ from MirSRE?
MirSRE manages the application reliability of platforms; MirDB manages the databases. They often work together on the same system.
Which databases do you work on?
We work on existing business-critical databases, including those set up by third parties, with specific expertise in Oracle and Amazon RDS environments (replatforming, safe upgrades, licensing). We also work on PostgreSQL, Microsoft SQL Server, MySQL/MariaDB, MongoDB/DocumentDB, Elasticsearch/OpenSearch, and Redis.
Do you also manage Oracle licenses?
Yes: Oracle license compliance analysis and optimization are part of the service, to reduce costs and risk.
Does MirDB cover only incidents, or also performance and costs?
Both: a well-managed database reduces incidents as well as performance and cost inefficiencies.
