Work experience

For the past two decades, I've been working mostly with RDBMS. Along the way, I helped design, code, implement and manage databases for small, medium and large organizations. The vast majority of my knowledge is tied to Microsoft SQL Server, but also from time to time I had the chance to enrich my set of tools working on projects involving MySQL, MariaDB and PostgresSQL databases.

Work Experience

After working as DBA and DBE for many years, I became familiar with the System Administration concepts and their best practices. In order to properly install, manage and configure Database software, I slowly picked up the knowloedge needed from the IT Infrastructure side.
