Iain White is an experienced Database Consultant with a proven track record of helping businesses use data and database systems to drive growth, improve reporting, and keep operations running smoothly.

With years of hands-on experience as a Chief Technology Officer and Tech Consultant, Iain understands how databases sit at the heart of most systems. When they’re healthy, everything feels easier. When they’re not, everyone feels it, usually at 4:55pm on a Friday.

His expertise spans database design and data modelling, performance tuning, reliability and monitoring, backups and disaster recovery, cloud database services, and security basics like access control and auditability. He’s also strong on strategy, governance, and delivery, so database work supports the wider business goals, not just the tech backlog. Iain believes in putting people before technology, which means making database changes that teams can understand, maintain, and trust.

Throughout his career, Iain has worked across startups, SMEs, and larger organisations, helping them untangle messy data, improve system performance, and build foundations for better decision-making. His approach is practical and results-driven, focused on scalability, security, and efficiency without unnecessary complexity.

Whether it’s designing a cleaner schema, stabilising production performance, planning a migration, improving reporting foundations, or putting solid recovery processes in place, Iain combines deep technical experience with a clear understanding of business operations to deliver meaningful outcomes.

As the founder of White Internet Consulting, he helps organisations make their data more reliable, their systems more resilient, and their teams a lot less afraid of the database.
