A bit of exciting news… Proven Scaling has officially gone global with the addition of a new MySQL Geek, Mike Griffiths of London, England to our team. We are now capable of easily and efficiently (timezone-wise and travel-wise) handling your on-site MySQL consulting needs in the London area, the UK, and Europe at large. (As well as making remote work in the middle of the night for our US customers a fair bit easier.)

Mike comes to us from Yahoo! Europe where he worked for a number of years specializing in MySQL operations, performance and optimization, replication and high availability, and scalability. He has been a personal friend for several years and I have been looking forward to him joining the Proven Scaling team since we started the company.

If you’re looking for MySQL consulting in Europe (or anywhere, for that matter), let us know!
