IBM Canada (Contract, re-hire in extension of the original Intria contract, see Apr July 2005 below)

Position: Clustering and High Availability Expert

Environment: Intria Items Inc.

Tuned IBM imageCPCS 1.4 and Carreker NexGen systems for maximum performance. Re-assessed initial

SAN design (StorageTek D280) and made changes to increase the performance almost three-fold and eliminate

bottlenecks at all system levels (SAN, network, OS and application)

Designed and implemented Microsoft Clustering for IBM imageCPCS and Carreker NexGen systems as part of

CIBC Truncation and Electronic Cheque Presentment project. Clustering complimented the original design with

redundancy and high availability. Systems are Windows 2003 Enterprise based with StorageTek FlexLine and

Westway Group Canada (Small project that I did for an old client of my company and my personal friend while

searching for the next big and interesting project)

Position: Technical Architect

Environment: Westway Group Canada is a system integrator for automotive brokers, auction companies and

dealerships. Among other things, they operate www.eWheels.ca web portal created by my company.

Designed and implemented small Citrix Metaframe XP solution for delivering two in-house designed applications

to 40+ partner dealers of www.ewheels.ca web site. Partner dealers across Canada needed access to two

frequently updated applications. The need of frequent application updates (once a week) was making it difficult

to use the app for the dealers and wasting a lot of bandwidth on the Westway Group s Internet connection

(average size of each update is 70MB). It was decided to migrate to the model where applications are hosted

and updated on the servers and dealers access those using TS over the Internet. I have built two Metaframe

XP servers, installed and packaged two applications, made changes to the DMZ firewall policy, written new

operational procedures for the dealers and a test plan for future UAT testing (which will commence in Oct

2005).
