Human Expertise + AI Efficiency

Your Database is in
Expert Hands

"AI is powerful, but it doesn't understand context. I founded OpsDBA.ai to bridge the gap between automated monitoring and human strategic oversight."

I am Corey Klessig, a Senior SQL Server DBA with over 25 years of experience managing SQL Server Environments.

I've managed environments ranging from startup prototypes to multi-terabyte enterprise warehouses. My philosophy is simple: Prevent the fire so we don't have to fight it. By combining my deep internal knowledge of the SQL Engine with modern AI agents, I can offer enterprise-grade uptime at a fraction of the headcount cost.
