Google Cloud SQL Management, Beyond What GCP Provides
Geopits provides the expert DBA layer that Google Cloud SQL does not. We manage the performance, cost, and reliability of your Cloud SQL environment so your team gets more from the infrastructure you are already paying for. From slow query analysis and instance rightsizing to read replica health, high availability configuration, and database flag tuning, we handle what Cloud Monitoring and Query Insights surface but cannot fix.

Cloud SQL Runs Your Database. We Make It Perform.
Google Cloud SQL is a fully managed relational database service on Google Cloud Platform that supports MySQL, PostgreSQL, and SQL Server. It handles the infrastructure layer of database operations, covering provisioning, patching, automated backups, and high availability through synchronous replication to a standby instance, giving teams a managed database without the overhead of server administration.
What Cloud SQL does not provide is database expertise. It monitors infrastructure metrics through Cloud Monitoring and surfaces query-level data through Query Insights, but it does not tune your slow queries, right-size your machine type for your actual workload, fix database flag misconfigurations, or alert your team when a bad execution plan is quietly degrading response times. Geopits fills that gap. We manage the performance and cost layer on top of your Cloud SQL infrastructure so you get the full value of what you are paying Google for.
What We Manage in Your Cloud SQL Environment
Every Geopits Cloud SQL engagement covers the performance and cost layer that Google does not manage. Continuous visibility into query performance, instance utilisation, read replica lag, high availability health, and storage growth powered by GeoOps, our in-house monitoring platform.

Know MoreFrequently Asked Questions
If we are already on Google Cloud SQL, why do we need Geopits?
Cloud SQL manages your infrastructure, not your database performance. It handles provisioning, patching, and basic availability, but it does not tune your slow queries, right-size your machine type for your actual workload, fix database flag misconfigurations, or proactively catch execution plan regressions. Geopits provides the expert DBA layer that fills that gap.
What does Google Cloud SQL managed services from Geopits include?
Our Cloud SQL engagement covers 24/7 monitoring beyond Cloud Monitoring, slow query analysis and tuning, instance machine type and storage optimisation, database flag configuration, read replica and high availability management, backup and point-in-time recovery management, cost optimisation, and incident response. Every engagement includes proactive monitoring via GeoOps and a dedicated DBA team familiar with your Cloud SQL environment.
Which Cloud SQL database engines does Geopits support?
Geopits supports all three Cloud SQL engines: MySQL, PostgreSQL, and SQL Server on Cloud SQL. We bring engine-specific DBA expertise to each, not generic Cloud SQL administration.
How does Geopits monitor Cloud SQL differently from Cloud Monitoring?
Cloud Monitoring tracks infrastructure-level metrics like CPU, memory, and disk utilisation. GeoOps, our in-house monitoring platform, adds database-level visibility: slow query tracking, execution plan changes, index usage patterns, replication lag, and connection saturation. We surface and act on issues that Cloud Monitoring cannot see.
How does Geopits help reduce our Cloud SQL costs?
We review machine type selection, storage autoscaling configuration, read replica count and sizing, backup retention policies, and committed use discount opportunities. Most teams find meaningful cost savings within the first quarter without any reduction in performance or availability.
How quickly can Geopits onboard our existing Cloud SQL environment?
Most Cloud SQL environments are fully onboarded within two to three weeks. We start with a read-only audit covering instance configuration, database flags, Query Insights data, slow query logs, and cost breakdown before taking any operational action. No downtime required.
Do you handle Cloud SQL engine version upgrades?
Yes. We assess compatibility, plan the upgrade path, schedule the maintenance window, and manage the upgrade with tested rollback procedures for both minor and major version upgrades across MySQL, PostgreSQL, and SQL Server on Cloud SQL.
Is Geopits Cloud SQL support available for startups or only for large enterprises?
We work with both. Engagements are scoped to your Cloud SQL footprint and growth stage, so you are not paying for coverage that does not match your actual needs.
