There are 300,000 companies running thousands of database servers in the EU, but there are surprisingly few tools available to improve or automate capacity optimization. Database capacity planning and optimization currently relies heavily on manual efforts for analysis and resource allocation. In large companies with 800 or more servers, service fees and investment in licenses alone represented 42% of annual budget. Apart from increasing costs for energy, hardware and software licenses for operating more servers, this over dimensioning causes unnecessary management overhead, resulting in a critical loss of efficiency through misallocation of resources.
Our solution, GOVERNOR, offers a disruptive and revolutionary optimization service through automated capacity planning, for which there is no comparable technical alternative at the moment. Instead of attempting to solve the challenges of capacity planning manually, GOVERNOR automatically calculates the optimal server configuration for a target architecture, resulting in significant cost savings and a more robust and efficient target server architecture.
We have set a complete list of future objectives that should position GOVERNOR as the technical reference in the field. These technical requirements can be distributed along 5 different Development Areas: Architecture enhancements, Capacity Planning improvements, Horizontal Platform expansion, UI adaptation and Productizing/Licensing. In terms of commercial objectives, we have been able to design a complete commercialization strategy through the participation of key partners and early adopters, as well as the increased participation in global events. This strategy will allow us to rapidly expand our operations across the EU.
