Independent services, designed to work as one platform

Data Services delivers the project work, DBAaaS can manage any of it, DBAsk is the intelligence layer, and SovereignDB is the foundation beneath it all. DBAI Platform bundles the four as one monthly service, while VMware Support keeps existing infrastructure stable in the meantime.

The project delivery

Data Services

The managed wrapper

DBAaaS

The intelligence layer

DBAsk

Turns questions into SQL a person reviews, running on any database or on SovereignDB.

The foundation

SovereignDB

Where your data lives - private, European, and under your control.

The exit route

Cloud Repatriation

Moves your wider estate out of the public cloud account, to private cloud or on-premises, with SovereignDB as a destination for the data.

The all-in-one plan

DBAI Platform

Bundles DBAaaS, ETL/ELT, modelling and DBAsk into one managed monthly service.

Infrastructure continuity

VMware Support
