Systems & infrastructure

Beneath the database lies the machine. And we know it well.

A database never lives alone: it rests on a system, storage, a network, a kernel. When an incident resists application-level analysis, the root cause often sits one layer below. For more than 26 years, our consultants have gone down to that layer — where many stop — to diagnose, repair and harden your Linux and Unix infrastructures.

Low-level systems engineering

Diagnose where the usual tooling goes blind. System performance analysis (CPU, memory, I/O), kernel and parameter tuning, resolution of contention and abnormal behaviour in production. We work more specifically on:

• System performance analysis and tuning (Linux, Unix)
• Kernel tuning, scheduling and memory management
• Diagnosis of I/O and network bottlenecks
• Stabilising critical production environments

Storage & data

Guarantee the integrity and availability of your volumes. Design and audit of storage architectures, file systems, replication and low-level backup — in direct continuity with our historical data expertise.

• Storage architecture and sizing
• File systems, volumes, replication
• Proven backup and restore strategies

Forensics & data recovery

Recover what seemed lost. A natural extension of our DB-Forensics tool: reading and extracting data from damaged media, isolated files or corrupted systems, recovering deleted or overwritten data. A rare skill, field-proven during our emergency interventions.

• Forensic analysis of files and media
• Recovery of corrupted, deleted or overwritten data
• Expertise in crisis and data-loss situations

Automation & industrialisation

Make your infrastructure reproducible and controlled. Scripting, deployment automation and configuration management with Ansible and Terraform, turning fragile manual operations into reliable, documented processes.

• Deployment and operations automation (Ansible)
• Infrastructure as Code (Terraform)
• Scripting and industrialisation of recurring tasks

Failing infrastructure gives no warning. Our 24/7 on-call also covers these system incidents, with the same intervention commitment.
