Database Performance Optimization
Faster queries, smaller bills, fewer 3am pages.
Most performance problems are query and indexing problems — not 'we need a bigger database.' We profile real workloads, identify the queries that hurt, fix them with proper indexes and rewrites, and tune the database engine for your actual access patterns.
Across MySQL, PostgreSQL, MongoDB, and managed equivalents.
Common problems
- Slow queries dragging the application
- Database CPU pinned with no clear culprit
- Replication lag growing under load
- Tempted to scale up before fixing root causes
What's included
- Query workload profiling with pg_stat / performance_schema
- Slow query identification and rewrite
- Indexing review and implementation
- Engine configuration tuning
- Read replica and scaling recommendations
- Written performance report
