Sr. SQL Server Database Developer

• Led the design development of their in-house marketing/project management application as well as helping to develop special requests for database support such as query support, Crystal reports, data imports/exports to/from Access and other database BA oriented needs. A successful outcome enabled their company to increase revenue many fold by allowing them to take on larger contracts.
• Design Development: Successfully designed and then led the development team in implementing a customized high availability transactional replication subsystem with SQL 2005 to support MMI's objective of developing an in-house online survey/project management application. The transactional replication system involves 24 mostly heterogeneous databases as of August 2007 each db implemented as a distinct publication hosted by one server pushing data to a subscriber server where all data from each database is hosted by the primary application database. The system is scalable to allow for 3 new publications per month each using an identical yet distinct db. The data is then concatenated via a nested trigger chain in real time where it is fed into a DataMart - triggers implemented on replication target tables fire off custom stored procedures that then call a view of the replicated data from which statistical data sets are derived for consumption and sale by SPSS statisticians for market data analysis in a near real time milliseconds format. I Conducted data analysis, data manipulation and data parsing as well as develop Sql queries to support in-house analysts. This application design and implementation had a direct impact on qualifying MMI for exponentially larger business agreements with major IT and News organizations such as IBM and Reuters. Technologies used: SQL Server 2005, 2000, SSIS, DTS, Profiler, SSRS Reporting Services, Access 2007, Crystal Reports.
• The customized transactional system was later sold to Infogroup NW and is still in use today.
