Laniakea was founded in 2019 by Nayab Saiyed, Founder & Principal Consultant, after more than two decades working inside enterprise databases, cloud infrastructure, and production operations.
The best consulting comes from people who've actually run production systems at scale — not from generalists reading vendor documentation.
Nayab Saiyed founded Laniakea on a simple belief: the best consulting comes from people who have actually operated production systems at scale — not from generalists reading vendor documentation.
As Founder & Principal Consultant, Nayab brings 20+ years of hands-on experience across Oracle, DB2 LUW, PostgreSQL, MySQL, Aurora, AWS, database release management, performance tuning, migration, and infrastructure automation.
Laniakea combines that founder-led technical judgment with Odoo implementation capacity for work that needs configuration, development, migration, and sustained delivery. The goal is a direct diagnosis, a clear owner, and a practical next step.
The name comes from the Laniakea Supercluster — our cosmic neighborhood containing over 100,000 galaxies. We chose it because great infrastructure, like the cosmos, operates at a scale that makes the impossible feel routine.
Four principles that shape how we work — and what you can expect from every engagement.
We're not a body-shop and we're not a slide factory. We're a small team of senior engineers who care more about your uptime than our invoice.
