FAQ

Hiring a Azure Database Administrator — FAQs

How fast can I onboard an Azure DBA through Golonex? +

Usually within one week. We shortlist pre-vetted Azure DBAs matched to your workload — Azure SQL Database, Managed Instance, or SQL on VMs — you interview them, and the selected DBA is onboarded to your subscription and tooling within 5 business days, working in your timezone.

Can your Azure DBAs handle a migration from on-prem SQL Server to Azure? +

Yes. Our Azure DBAs plan and run migrations using Azure Database Migration Service and backup/restore or log shipping, right-sizing the target tier and validating performance. They design cutover windows to minimise downtime and keep your team informed throughout.

Do they manage high availability and disaster recovery? +

Absolutely. They configure Always On Availability Groups, auto-failover groups, active geo-replication, and point-in-time restore, then document RTO/RPO targets and test the failover so recovery is proven, not assumed.

Will the DBA work overlapping hours with my team? +

Yes. Although based in India, our Azure DBAs work overlapping hours with US, UK, and Australian teams. Coverage windows are agreed before the engagement so incident response, deployments, and standups line up with your schedule.

How do you vet Azure Database Administrators? +

Every candidate passes a technical assessment covering real Azure SQL scenarios — HA/DR design, query tuning, and security — plus a communication and remote-working assessment and reference checks from at least two prior engagements before you meet them.
