What We Deliver

Three Integrated Capabilities. Senior-Led. Federal-Grade.

Fortis Data Group delivers across three integrated capability pillars — Database Engineering, Cloud Infrastructure, and AI [Artificial Intelligence] Data Engineering. Every engagement is led by a senior practitioner with hands-on federal production experience across all three.

Pillar 01

Data Platform & Database Engineering

The foundation. Senior DBA [Database Administrator] depth across every major platform — delivering the database reliability, performance, and compliance that federal programs depend on.

Database Administration & Operations

Enterprise DBA [Database Administrator] services across SQL Server, PostgreSQL, Oracle, MySQL, MariaDB, and MongoDB. Full lifecycle — installation, configuration, patching, upgrades, capacity planning, and 24/7 operational support for mission-critical federal environments.

Performance Tuning & Optimization

Deep-dive analysis using DMVs [Dynamic Management Views], execution plans, wait statistics, and I/O [Input/Output] profiling. Query optimization, indexing redesign, and instance parameter tuning — fixing root causes permanently, not masking symptoms.

Pillar 02

Cloud Infrastructure & Modernization

Multi-cloud migration, IaC [Infrastructure as Code] automation, and cloud-native data platform engineering across all four government cloud environments — within federal compliance boundaries.

Cloud Database Modernization

End-to-end migration of legacy database environments to AWS GovCloud [Amazon Web Services Government Cloud], Azure Government, OCI [Oracle Cloud Infrastructure], and GCP [Google Cloud Platform]. Assessment, architecture, execution, validation, and post-migration optimization — zero data loss.
