What are the costs of one hour MySQL downtime?

Hello,

there are companies which earn tens of thousands of Euros per hour with their MySQL databases. Other companies operate their ERP system on MySQL, to which 1000 employees are attached to. Is the database down 1000 people are not working any more until the system is working again! Downtime costs starting at EUR 30'000.- per hour upwards.

Support through the MySQL specialists?

These companies have properly planned operations of their MySQL databases, designed their production systems redundantly and assured their support through MySQL specialists with a support contract, is oneself thinking.
Far wrong: Ever and ever we can see companies, which operates their MySQL databases without planning, no redundancy and external support.

In an emergency, mostly the own employees lack in experience, lack in exercising and because they have to care about all other systems as well, they are overburdened in such a situation and would like to call a MySQL specialist for assistance.
