Project: Configuration Management for multi country Charisma environments with

master databases

Management of configuration items packaging, testing and distribution as across

development, hotfix and production environments. The architecture has a global

master configuration database and child country specific configuration

databases. The system is in tests and will go live this year at the leasing

division of a well-known bank with subsidiaries worldwide.

Project: Alerts server

Alerts server application that notifies of users of events or actions at

various time interval. The alerts are configurable and integrated with the

Charisma tasks, security settings and internal organization policy.

Project: Enterprise search in Charisma

Backend SOLR, Lucene, dataImportHandler. An IDE for configuration of business

entity documents and fields for search. Search results support navigation to

application view and edit screens.

Project: Software Deployment System (used for MIC.RO).

Automated software deployment, upgrade and removal tool. Hierarchical

distribution system with centralized status reporting. Used to push/pull

software packages, service packs, hotfixes, custom operations (database install

and create, script batches, custom actions: OLE registration, regasm execution

or Powershell scripts ) from a central server to distributor nodes and further

to workstations in different networks.

Project: Facelift engine for .NET Windows Forms + Delphi native application to

use third-party visual components (DevExpress Suite) for unified visual

experience: Charisma 3.0 was launched in autumn 2010.

Application parses source code, builds an enhanced CodeDOM representation, uses

binaries for inheritance discovery, transforms old components type, properties,

methods and events, sets global presets, updates resource files (both .net 1.1

and 2.0 style) or DFMs ( Delphi form resources).

Transform rules are described in a high-level API and packaged individually for

each application.

Project: In-house Domain Model Framework - enables different client side

technologies to work with a common domain model making it is easy for you to

develop, test, and deploy your applications across different client types

because of code reuse.

The framework applies solid architectural practices, such as MVC and MVVM and

enables programmers to keep the business logic where it belongs without

sacrificing usability or functionality.

A custom business rules engine offers rule verification and chaining against

entity graphs. It implements advanced data binding based on object graph paths.

Generic domain views "render" user interface for ASP.NET (using ExtJS

framework) and Windows Forms. WPF and Silverlight.

Domain views designer tools help programmers define user interface platform

agnostic views, data binding and business rules. Role based security, logging

and internationalization are services integrated in the domain views editor.

Domain views are extensible with custom fields and scripting rules, providing

the flexibility needed by a modern multi tenant application.

Project: Easy script engine allows the application customization in production.

Custom rules may be associated to business component, security items, user

defined fields and actions.

Key responsibilities and deliverables:

Features: complete language implementation on top of DLR, closures support,

adding event handlers from script to external objects, null propagation, and

LINQ support.

Friendly language: borrows the best concepts from existing languages.

Technologies: ANTLR 3.1.2 for parser. Compiler based on Dynamic Language

Runtime.

Project: Aggregated database logging system - tracks historical changes to the

business objects inside the database.

Key responsibilities and deliverables:

Business activity logging integrated with application security roles. Minimum

ERP application data layer configuration.

Features: Recomposing tables log data into time accurate end-user information

based on business view definitions, multithreading and scalability of the

service on multiple machines, filtering and sorting of big amounts of data.

Technologies: VSDB T-SQL parser, thread-safe data structures, NHibernate,

DevExpress grid virtual mode with IListServer

Project: Charisma Enterprise Localization - complete ERP application

localization process with translation repository stored in a SQL database

Key responsibilities and deliverables:

Localization targets NET application, Delphi modules, database error messages,

database data, crystal reports and reporting services, OS dialog buttons and

messages.

Data localization is a feature unique in the ERP market: concurrent users that

have configured different languages for the user interface have query results

and reports localized accordingly.

Features: API hooking, minimal changes in the application (the pattern can be

applied to other software projects), edit translation at runtime, language

switching at runtime for use interface and data, multiple languages within the

database.

Translation integration service that monitors published builds, extracts native

and .NET resources, stored procedure messages, crystal and reporting services

report definitions and stores them in a central repository.

Translation web service that publishes for download localization databases

required by different product versions.

.NET add-ins and external tool for parsing, instrumentation and localization of

T-SQL, Pascal and C# source code.

Hooks, API hooking and patching

Project: Database schema versioning repository - lifecycle management tool for

database development teams.

Key responsibilities and deliverables:

Database schema repository with versioning for multiple software products with

dependencies. Objects history is preserved in source control. Development

scripts are uploaded on the web, parsed with a custom T-SQL parser that

enforces naming, coding and SQL version rules, executes against a product

version, is checked against dependent products and upper versions, changed

database objects are saved in source control.

The installation kit builder reads the upgrade scripts files, execution order

and product dependencies from the datacenter and produces a database upgrade

package.

Project: Database schema compare and merge engine for SQL

Key responsibilities and deliverables: driven by the requirements of our main

product the engine offers a level of customization of merge not found

commercial schema compare SDKs.

Project: Replication engine MSDE to SQL SERVER
