Tessell launches three specialized agents built with Gemini, opening a conversational "front door" for automated operations, governance, and cloud migration for heavy enterprise database workloads.


LAS VEGAS - October 23, 2026 - Tessell (www.tessell.com), one of the leading multi-cloud database-as-a-service (DBaaS) providers, today announced the launch of three specialized agents built leveraging Google’s Gemini. The announcement, showcased live at Oracle CloudWorld (Oracle AI World), introduces a groundbreaking shift toward Agentic Database Lifecycle Management (DBaaS) for Tessell customers running complex enterprise database workloads on Google Cloud.


By leveraging Gemini, the new agents transform the chat interface into an intelligent, conversational control plane. For the first time, Database Administrators (DBAs), Site Reliability Engineers (SREs), platform owners, and enterprise migration teams can manage sophisticated database engines—including Oracle, Microsoft SQL Server, PostgreSQL, MySQL, MongoDB, and Milvus—using natural language. All underlying infrastructure operations automatically route to Google Cloud hardware, including memory-optimized M4/M4N Compute Engine series and Hyperdisk Extreme/Balanced storage.

Three Specialized Agents for Full Lifecycle Management

The partnership introduces three distinct agents designed to handle specific operational domains:

Tessell Ops Agent


Automates day-to-day database administration. It handles parameter gathering, instantiates high-availability database engines, inspects real-time service and host metrics (like CPU load and blocking sessions), and automates point-in-time recovery, vertical scaling, credential rotation, and blueprint deployment.

Tessell Governance Agent


Enforces corporate compliance and security postures conversationally. The agent configures backup SLAs, disaster recovery topologies, and Customer-Managed Encryption Keys (CMEK). It also audits role-based entitlements, applies automated data-masking templates to dev/test clones, and generates compliance attestation summaries for PCI DSS, ISO 27001, and SOC 2 audits.

Tessell Migrate Agent


Simplifies and accelerates data center exits and cloud migrations. It inventories source database estates (on-premises, AWS RDS, or VMs), calculates optimal Google Cloud target configurations, formulates step-by-step execution runbooks, and tracks automated replication pipelines with real-time in-chat metrics like CDC replication lag. It also supports seamless database engine modernization, such as re-platforming legacy Oracle SE workloads to PostgreSQL on Google Cloud.
