About

We've spent 15 years breaking and fixing MySQL at scale. Now we do it for you.

Our story
Before SynapseData, we were the people who got paged at 3 AM when the database went down.
We managed MySQL at companies where every millisecond of latency mattered — where Black Friday traffic could 10x overnight and a replication failure meant front-page news.
MySQL is all we do

While other firms spread across 40+ database technologies, we go deeper on MySQL than anyone. Percona Server, MariaDB, Aurora MySQL, InnoDB internals, replication architectures, ProxySQL, Vitess — this is our world.

Production-proven, not theoretical

Our recommendations come from managing 1,000+ production servers serving 100M+ end users. We don't guess. We've seen what works at scale and what doesn't.

Deep expertise. Real-world results.
Named experts, not ticket queues

When you work with SynapseData, you work with a dedicated senior engineer who knows your environment, your team, and your goals. You'll never explain your architecture to a rotating cast of support reps.

Full lifecycle coverage

From architecture design and performance tuning through cloud migration and ongoing managed operations — we cover every stage of your MySQL journey with the rigor of someone who's managed 1,000+ production servers.

We tell you what you need to hear, not what you want to hear
Honest assessments, always

If your database architecture is sound, we'll say so — and save you money. If it's a ticking time bomb, we'll say that too — and help you fix it before it goes off.

Enterprise-grade rigor

Every configuration change has a rollback plan. Every migration has a runbook. Every recommendation has data behind it. We hold ourselves to the same standards we maintained at Etsy and The New York Times.

Approach

Our values aren't aspirational. They're how we work every day.

01
Excellence

We bring enterprise-grade rigor to every engagement, whether you're a 10-person startup or a Fortune 500. Every configuration change has a rollback plan. Every migration has a runbook.

03
Clients first

Your databases are your business. We treat them with the urgency they deserve. When something is broken, we drop everything. When it can wait, we're honest about that too.
