The agentic DBA

Every database breaks.
Flightdeck knows why.

Monitoring shows you what changed. Figuring out why still takes a senior engineer — and there are never enough of them. Flightdeck is that expertise on every database: it holds every plausible cause at once, gathers the evidence, and names the real one in seconds. Then it fixes it.

The wedge
The scarcest thing in infrastructure is
the person who knows why.
STARTUPS · NO DBA ON STAFF

The database is everyone's job — and no one's craft.

So a developer stares at a slow database at 2am and pastes the error into an LLM. But a model only answers the questions you know to ask — and knowing what to ask is the craft. Flightdeck asks for you: it runs the exact checks a career DBA would run, on the live database, and returns the cause. Your team ships product. The DBA seat is filled.

ENTERPRISES · ONE EXPERT, EVERY FIRE

Your best DBA can't be in two outages at once.

Every company has the one engineer who can smell a bloated index from across the room — and a queue outside their door when the world goes down. Flightdeck maps that brain into software and runs it in parallel: beside every engineer, on every database, at the same time. The expert stops being the bottleneck. Everyone on the team works like your best one.

The gap
Every tool tells you what changed.
None tell you why.

The alert fires at 3am. Latency's up, disk reads are up, nothing deployed. Stale statistics? A working set that outgrew memory? Storage throttling? The dashboards only show symptoms — someone has to reason through the causes. That someone is Flightdeck.

“Latency up, reads up, nothing changed.”
Dashboardsshow the symptom, leave the diagnosis to you
Alertingpages a human to figure out the cause
Flightdeckweighs the evidence → names the cause, with the why
And it compounds.

A great DBA isn't great because they memorized the manual — they're great because they've seen your systems fail before. Flightdeck works the same way: every incident your team confirms makes it sharper, and that history accumulates into judgment about your fleet that no off-the-shelf model can hold. A chatbot answers the same forever. Flightdeck becomes your best DBA — because it remembers.

What it does
It doesn't just explain. It operates.
01 · SEES

Reads the whole picture

The moment something moves, it gathers exactly what a senior DBA would check — evidence for every candidate cause, not just the obvious one.

02 · REASONS

Names the cause

It ranks the causes, shows the evidence behind each, and says how sure it is — and admits when the evidence isn't there, instead of guessing.

03 · ACTS

Fixes it, safely

It proposes the fix, applies it reversibly, and checks that it held — rolling back on its own if it didn't. Nothing irreversible happens without a human.
