We map the work to the controls that apply to you, such as the NCA Essential Cybersecurity Controls and the Personal Data Protection Law, and prepare the evidence in a form your compliance team can file.
Riyadh Solutions
Best Database solutions company in Riyadh
Relational and analytical databases migrated, hardened and kept available through patches and cloud moves. Hosn Al Tomoh works with organisations in Riyadh on database platforms, agreeing scope, responsibilities and proof of completion for each phase from the start.
Database work keeps systems of record fast, available and secure: migration between engines or to the cloud, high availability, performance tuning and security hardening. Runbooks then keep them that way through every patch cycle.
Saudi programmes usually have to account for the Essential Cybersecurity Controls of the National Cybersecurity Authority (NCA), the Personal Data Protection Law overseen by SDAIA and, for government entities, the standards of the Digital Government Authority. Banks answer to SAMA, and insurers to the Insurance Authority. We plan hosting, data classification and evidence around these from the start, and quote in Saudi riyals.
Before go-live, we run a full rehearsal of the cutover with the team who will operate the service, and agree in advance how problems will be escalated in the first weeks after launch.
The scope can run from a short diagnostic to a phased rollout, and each phase is fixed before it starts.
Where the effort goes
We concentrate on the points below, because that is where the work usually stumbles.
- High availability and backup designs proven by real failover and restore.
- Performance baselines captured before migration and compared after it.
- Encryption, access and auditing aligned with each data class.
Where programmes go wrong
Database migrations fail on the details: character sets, stored procedures and batch jobs nobody documented. We inventory them first and rehearse the migration with production-sized data.
We record decisions, responsibilities and test results as we go, so internal audit and regulators can trace every decision and who approved it.
Common questions
What buyers usually ask before a first workshop.
Often, yes, with replication and a short cutover window. We rehearse the cutover and agree a rollback point before the real one.
Yes. We document the current integrations first and keep existing systems running alongside the new ones until the switch-over is proven.
Stages of the work
A phased approach, from assessment to knowledge transfer.
Assess
We review the current state, the risks and the quick wins.
Plan
We draw up a phased plan with scope, team, responsibilities and acceptance criteria for each phase.
Deliver and verify
We deliver in phases and show that each one meets its criteria.
