25 years SQL Server database experience with Monster.com, Vistaprint, Kronos, UKG, Harvard U., etc.My #1 goal is ensuring my customer's databases are recoverable from disasters (incl. ransomware). With our remote DBA services...we provide necessary database administration and our SQL Server Monitor Service ensures backups & recoverability...including off-site to the cloud. We're Azure Government authorized to help protect backups against on-premise ransomware attacks. We give peace of mind in knowing your data is protected and recoverable from hardware failures, human errors, and ransomware attacks.As the president and owner of G Force Data, Inc. for 18 years, I provide expert SQL Server database consulting to public safety & law enforcement, colleges and universities, and private businesses. I've gained the trust and confidence of my clients, partners, and colleagues to secure, administer, maintain, and protect critical and confidential data. With countless engagements with Public Safety agencies (and extensively with Police Departments), I deliver solutions that extend beyond database maintenance and disaster recovery. My acquired knowledge of CAD data, Crime Analysis needs, and general law enforcement data requirements allows me to consistently deliver valuable business intelligence including custom reports, data exports, data integrations, and 3rd party vendor support. My experience and value delivery helps agencies efficiently achieve their data and reporting needs while also improving department effectiveness and reducing (or eliminating) existing manual work procedures.I've used my roles at multiple, large-scale, online, data-driven companies to hone my skills and become SME in multiple database technology areas. Long tenures at companies including Monster.com, Vistaprint, Kronos, and UKG helped grow and refine my experience in areas including database technologies, database administration, disaster recovery, data integrations, data center migrations, business intelligence, and public cloud (AWS, Azure, GCP). With responsibilities that included managing teams larger than 60 engineers and DBAs (including offshore), I'm skilled in hiring, training, and process improvement. My role at Kronos/UKG had me responsible for maintenance, administration, performance, security, disaster recovery, and customer support for SQL Server, Oracle, Postgres, Cassandra for over 6k servers, 30k customers, 15,000,000 users. The role at MercuryGate had me direct the company database migration from on premise to AWS for hundreds of databases and servers.
