EDB Webinar: Database Downtime: The Major Ways Your Database is Hurting Your Brand and Customer Experience

80% of data centers have experienced an outage in the past three years.

40% of these outages increased employee overtime due to data disruption, not to mention 60% reporting large monetary losses.

Database downtime can spell disaster for both highly-regulated industries and global enterprises. Now more than ever, it's mission-critical to have a flexible database architecture that affords your team and business to scale and optimize to have satisfied customers and a strong brand reputation.

In this 45-minute webinar, hosted by Celest Turner Hall, EDB senior leaders Kelly Poole, and Tom Rieger will discuss the major ways your database architecture could be failing your business, causing frustrating planned or unplanned downtime, increasing regulatory or monetary risks and even data non-compliance.

They’ll then explain how you can meet your customer’s expectations and maintain brand reputation by:

Keeping data secure
Protecting mission-critical applications
Meeting the growing demand for online apps
Avoiding productivity disruption
Achieving five 9s uptime with rolling upgrades and flexible architecture
Geographically distributing workloads
Leveraging multi-master replication
