Results

Examples of results I have worked with clients to accomplish.

Self Service Databases
I worked with a medium size company to create to develop an easy way for their developers to request databases for development and testing purposes. The end result was setup requiring no extra tools or investments, while providing the developers an easy, yet flexible API to request databases, and have them delivered in seconds. This enabled the developers to do better testing and and delivery fast quality products to the business.

Testing of emergency procedures
A small startup in Copenhagen had just barely recovered from a major incident in which a number of very unlucky factor came close to closing their business.
I worked with them to analyze their database setup, in order to create an improved backup setup as well as a robust disaster plan. While to company didn't have the size or need for their own full time database administrator, I created a two day bootcamp for a few key personnel in the company, to give them a better in depth understanding of the need, benefits and limitations of an SQL Server database, all based on the specific needs of their company.
