What a MySQL DBA does
A MySQL DBA administers and optimises your MySQL and MariaDB estate — tuning slow queries and indexes, configuring InnoDB, setting up replication and failover, managing backups, and hardening security. Our MySQL DBAs work across on-prem and managed cloud (Amazon RDS/Aurora, Cloud SQL), diagnose performance with EXPLAIN and the slow query log, and plan schema migrations with minimal downtime.

Hiring a MySQL DBA — FAQs
How quickly can I hire a MySQL DBA through Golonex? +
Typically within one week. From your enquiry we shortlist pre-vetted MySQL DBAs matched to your environment — self-managed or RDS/Aurora — you interview the shortlist, and the selected DBA is onboarded within 5 business days, working in your timezone.
Can a MySQL DBA fix slow queries on our production database? +
Yes. They analyse the slow query log and EXPLAIN plans, redesign indexes, rewrite problematic queries, and tune InnoDB and server parameters — usually delivering measurable improvements without application changes where possible.
Do your DBAs handle replication and high availability? +
Yes. They set up and troubleshoot asynchronous, semi-synchronous, and GTID-based replication, and configure high-availability topologies such as InnoDB Cluster, Galera, and ProxySQL routing to keep your data available during failures.
Can they run migrations without taking the database down? +
Yes. For large tables they use online schema-change tools like gh-ost and pt-online-schema-change, plan replication-aware rollouts, and test restores beforehand so migrations happen with minimal or no downtime.
How do you vet MySQL DBAs? +
Every candidate passes a technical assessment (live tuning, replication, and recovery scenarios on real MySQL problems), a communication and remote-working assessment, and reference checks from at least two prior engagements before you meet them.
