Unparalleled service
Carib Data Limited provides top quality
consulting services that can make your
organisation's database systems meet your
expectations and requirements in performance,
reliability and cost-efficiency.
Pre-purchase advice and
sizing
Our consultants have the in-depth knowledge of
the full range of Oracle products and UNIX
platforms required to help you make sensible
decisions when purchasing database products or
selecting a platform to best meet the needs of your
organisation.
Our status as an Oracle Alliance Partner gives
us access to the most up-to-date information on the
latest Oracle technologies while our years of
successful Oracle systems development ensures that
our advice will be based on practical experience
not advertising copy.

these cutting-edge products:

systems
Purchasing Assistance
Carib Data Limited is a licensed reseller of
Oracle Server, Oracle Express and Personal Oracle
products. In addition we maintain close ties to
principal distributors of Sun Microsystems, HP, IBM
and Apple hardware and operating systems allowing
us to provide a comprehensive purchasing service
with direct support tailored to your needs.
Design services
A database system can never overcome the
performance and flexibility limitations it gets
from its design. We have 15 years experience in
creating flexible performance-optimised designs for
relational databases including:
- United Nations Compensation Commission
Claims System (Kuwait)
- Sprint Communications AWDS Billing system
- United Research Project Management database
- US Government FTS2000 Service Order Tracking
System
- British Virgin Islands Payroll System
All of these systems owe their success to the
quality of design applied at the outset. Let us do
the same for you.
Whether your system is OLTP or Data Warehousing,
Carib Data Limited can provide an unparalleled
level of expertise.
Contact
us with your requirements. We'll be happy to
discuss them with you.

Backup and Recovery
planning
Frequent and usable backups are a certain
requirement for all but the most trivial of
databases. Yet few companies spend any time or
effort making sure that their backup and recovery
strategy will provide the protection that they
require.
We can assess you current policy and provide
solutions that will be tailored to your specific
needs.
In addition, we provide both an off site storage
site for physical media and a FTP site for online
backups over ISDN with aggregation up to 10 B
providing greater-than-ethernet speeds. See our
page titled 'Support
Services' for more details.
Firefighting and
Troubleshooting
Few IT departments are large enough to include
specialised trouble-shooting and problem resolution
skills. Our consultants have worked with enough
Oracle on open systems sites to have 'seen it all'.
Available on-call 24 hours a day (in conjunction
with the On-call Service) our consultants can help
to ensure that your problems are resolved without
undue disruption to your business.
We can also provide trouble-shooting and problem
resolution services to organisations that do not
subscribe to one of our support contracts -
subject, of course, to availability.
Related services
Other services offered by Carib Data Limited are
available to our consultation clients including
advice on establishing cover policies for
administration and establishing tuning goals for
your Oracle database system.

us to see how we can help you reach your goals
in performance, reliablitiy and cost-efficiency.
Why buy consulting services?
Real consultants (as opposed to most contractors
who call themselves consultants in order to charge
more and feel better) bring to the client a wealth
of experience gained over time through trial and
error. As a result the information they provide is
not available elsewhere. Oracle's documentation is
good, but it only tells part of the story. To get
the rest you must find someone with extensive
enough experience to have found it out themselves.
All of our consultants have that experience. In
addition we operate a number of Oracle databases
ourselves - with every conceivable option and
combination of options - allowing us to experiment
and stretch them to the breaking point - something
you are advised not to try with your production
system. But because we break things in the safely
of the lab, you don't have to take the risk in your
computer room.
Good consultants pay not just for themselves,
but leave your organisation better informed.
