About Hemantgiri S. Goswami

I help organizations design, operate, and trust SQL Server systems that must stay online — even when things go wrong.My core focus is High Availability (HA), Disaster Recovery (DR), and long-term reliability of SQL Server environments supporting business-critical workloads.With 25+ years of hands-on experience, I work with enterprises and engineering teams to eliminate single points of failure, validate failover readiness, and build operational resilience into their SQL Server platforms — on-premises and in the cloud.Downtime is rarely caused by technology alone.It’s caused by design gaps, untested assumptions, and weak operational discipline.That’s where I help the most.What I do best Design and review SQL Server HA & DR architectures Identify availability risks before they turn into outages Validate backup, restore, and failover readiness Improve stability, reliability, and operational confidence Build runbooks, SOPs, and compliance-ready documentation (SOX, ISO, Security Audits) Act as a bridge between technical teams and business stakeholdersReal-world impactImproved system reliability and uptime by ~40% in production environmentsLed and mentored 20+ IT professionals across operations and support teamsDesigned HA/DR strategies for business-critical and regulated systemsSupported pre-sales, audits, and executive decision-making with clear technical guidanceBeyond consultingI regularly share practical, real-world SQL Server HA/DR knowledge through:Speaking engagementsTraining sessionsYouTube videos focused on availability, resilience, and real incident lessonsLet’s connect h••••••••@sqlservercitation.com sqlservercitation.comIf reliability matters more than heroics, you’re in the right place.
