See how Metis can make your database 3x faster and 50% cheaper!

Growing your team may be challenging. Developers may get swamped with technical complexity and overfocus on the details of the technology. Sometimes it’s hard to see the forest for the trees. To overcome the complexity, developers need to cooperate with others to broaden their understanding, learn more, and get hands-on experience.

Unfortunately, this often leads to dependencies on other teams. Siloes become natural and teams get specializations in different parts of the ecosystem. This is beneficial to some extent as it speeds up the development. Unfortunately, this also leads to slow communication between teams and wasting time across the development pipeline.

What if your team didn’t need to speak with other teams? What if your team could own their database end-to-end? Read on to understand how to achieve that.

Let’s Give Developers Tools

Developers struggle with two big areas around databases. First, they are unsure if their code changes are safe for production deployment. Second, they can’t maintain databases to provide database reliability. Let’s see what they need to advance in both of these areas.

To make developers owners, they need to be warned if their solutions will not scale well in production. They need some kind of “database review” during the development that will confirm if their queries will be fast, schema migrations will not cause data loss, and configurations will give the maximum performance. They need solutions that will analyze if their designs are correct and safe for production deployment.

Metis addresses these needs. Metis integrates with developers’ environments, analyzes the queries, and provides actionable performance insights that developers can use to improve speed and performance.

Each insight gives details on what is wrong and how to fix the issue. Similarly, Metis analyzes schema migrations to prevent data loss.

Metis analyzes schemas, indexes, extensions, configurations, and much more, and explains how to tune the settings to achieve better performance.

Let’s Achieve Database Reliability

Metis helps with database day-to-day tasks. By focusing on database metrics, Metis can detect anomalies, tune the settings, and optimize performance.

Developers don’t need to ask DBAs for help. Instead, developers can improve databases on their own.

Even more importantly, Metis uses AI to automate changes and suggest fixes:

This way, developers can approve suggestions with one click and improve performance.

Let Your Team Work Independently With Metis

Metis helps your team achieve the greatest database reliability. Developers can be sure their changes are safe for production deployments, anomalies are detected, and configurations are tuned for the best performance. You can focus on managing your projects easier as developers don’t waste time on slow communication with other teams. This lets you focus on your business, improves your velocity, and scales your organization.
