Oradell IT Consulting Corp., President April 2006 - present

Most notable Clients and Projects

CVS/Aetna, Jun 2019 - present Lead Data Platform Engineer

Project:

Support and enhancement of CVS Active Health Management (AHM) information systems

Technology stack:

Linux, Oracle 19c, Google Cloud Platform (GCP), Cloud SQL (PostgreSQL on GCP), Java, Git, Jenkins

Responsibilities:

SQL, PL/SQL, PLpgSQL, Java coding, Unix shell scripting, SQL performance tuning, data modeling using Oracle Data Modeler.

Achievements:

As the local (US) technical lead of an offshore (India) development team, successfully reengineered the CVS AHM Product Setup Automation (PSA) sub-system: converted ~20 thousand lines of poorly written legacy PL/SQL code into ~60 views (pure SQL!), plus a simple PL/SQL package with only ~600 lines of code.

We used the generic ETL solution – DRF – that I developed previously.

As the result, performance increased dramatically (x1000!), system support and further enhancement of the new well-structured code became significantly easier.

I completed POC demonstrating retrieval of Patients’ data from multiple Cloud SQL database tables using a single call to the stored procedure that returned combined data in JSON format, which has better performance in comparison to selecting data separately from each table:

Bank of America Senior Oracle Developer, Oracle DBA

Project:

3 different projects: in 2006, 2011-2013 and 2015-2016;

Technology Stack:

Linux, Oracle 9i - 11g, including Oracle Exadata, MS SQL Server, Netezza, HDFS, Oracle Golden Gate;

Achievements:

In 2006, while working for Merrill Lynch (now BOFA) on the “Direct Market Access” (DMA) project, I successfully resolved the issue of inadequate system throughput – see the details at the end - in the Project details section.

In 2011-2013, while working on the “Product Data Master” (PDM) project, I developed a generic solution for performing complex multi-threaded ETL scenarios within an Oracle RDBMS – a Data Refresh Framework (DRF) - that we used very successfully to populate the PDM data repository. See details in the Project details section.

In 2015-2016, while working on the “Risk Data Reporting” (RDR) project, I implemented a semi-automated process that compressed and purged old data from the database holding historical “stress-test” modelling results for BOFA portfolio positions in Fixed Income, Currencies and Commodities sectors.

My solution consisted of a PL/SQL package and a configuration table that specified data retention policy for all the tables in the RDR database. It was a “hand-made” implementation of what later Oracle offered as Information Lifecycle Management (ILM).

I was able to reduce the amount of used disk space from the original 50TB down to 20TB.

Polo Ralph Lauren, NJ. Jun 2009 – May 2010. Senior Oracle Developer, Oracle DBA

Project:

Integration of Polo ERP systems using IBM Web Sphere MQ and Oracle Streams AQ;

Technology Stack:

AIX, Oracle 10g, Oracle Messaging Gateway (OMG), IBM Web Sphere MQ

Responsibilities:

1.Oracle DB administration and configuration, including Streams AQ and Oracle MGW;

2.SQL and PL/SQL development and performance tuning;

3.Shell scripting;

Achievements:

The project was in danger of missing the deadline because of lack of developers possessing coding skills in IBM MQ environment.

My suggestion to use Oracle Messaging Gateway, convert MQ messages into Oracle AQ messages and do all message processing inside Oracle RDBMS, using PL/SQL – it was a “life saver”.

We were able to put this integration solution to PROD even before the deadline.

Project details:

Year: 2006 Client: Merrill Lynch Project: Direct Market Access (DMA)

Merrill Lynch provided clearing services for Clients trading on NYSE. The Clients and the Exchange used Tibco message queue for communication: 1) Clients placing Orders and getting confirmations, 2) Trades being commenced and then partially or fully executed, 3) Orders being fulfilled or terminated, etc. – information about all these business events was flying back and forth as Tibco messages.

There were multiple Java “listeners” “sitting around” the message queue, reading (but not consuming!) these messages and inserting the corresponding data into a single staging table in an Oracle database.

The ON-INSERT trigger fired. It called a PL/SQL stored procedure that analyzed the inserted information and recorded it properly in multiple “main” tables – Orders, Trades, etc.

The procedure logic was quite complex because the order of incoming data entries might not correspond to the order of business events. For example, a confirmation for receiving a new Order could come before information about that Order placement. This was the result of the Java “listeners” not coordinating their work with each other and working at a different speed. Such inconsistencies were usually resolved within a few seconds with arrival of delayed information.

The task was to assure that up to 1000 events could be processed in one second.

I streamlined the procedure logic and – most importantly – removed multiple COMMITs from it. Multiple COMMITs caused excessive redo log writes and that was the main reason for inadequate throughput. I left only one COMMIT at the very end but made sure that various potential error conditions were properly handled. I created several transaction SAVEPOINTs and rolled back to the proper SAVEPOINT when necessary.

I tested my procedure on the latest (back then) Oracle RDBMS version – 10g, which I installed, configured and tuned.

The result was good: the system could easily process 1000 events per second.

For testing, I developed a stored procedure that could copy consistent sets of data from one database (PROD) to another – QA or DEV. For the given table name and a WHERE condition, the procedure would copy the corresponding data from the specified table as well as data from other tables linked to the given one by FKs - in both “up” and “down” directions. The procedure “followed” those FKs not just to the “nearest neighbors” but kept going along such “FK chains” to the very end. For example, you could start from a particular Trade and end up with copying the corresponding Order and Client info. Or, you could start with the Order and follow it up to its Client and down to its Trades.

Years: 2011-2013 Client: Bank of America Project: Product Data Master (PDM)

“Product Data Master” (PDM) is a data repository that holds complete “life history” of existing Financial Products, with information received from Bloomberg, Reuters, etc., with up to 1 billion individual changes coming each day.

PDM implements “bi-temporal” data storage, with every data element having 2 “live” time periods:

1.A business one – for instance, this Option was issued on this date and will expire on that date;

2.A technological one – this data was entered at this date/time and then was replaced at that date/time.

Populating PDM is a complex multi-step ETL process.

I developed a generic “Data Refresh Framework” (DRF) solution - 2 PL/SQL packages and 2 configuration tables - to perform ETL withing an Oracle RDBMS in a manner of a Directed Acyclic Graph (DAG), with every ETL step (a DAG edge) implemented by a single DML command (INSERT, UPDATE, MERGE or DELETE). DRF generates these commands automatically – based on the provided configuration and based on the column name comparison of the source (view, table or SQL query) and of the target (always a table). Multiple steps can be executed simultaneously – in multiple sessions started via DBMS_SCHEDULER.

A developer in the DRF environment only needs to write plain SQL queries implementing the required business logic – usually in a form of views - and register them in the DRF configuration tables. Please, see a complete DRF description and the source code here.

We successfully used DRF for populating the PDM repository. The performance was great and the visibility of what was happening in the database was superb – thanks to the imbedded logging mechanism – see here.

Later, I successfully used DRF at CVS/Aetna for the PSA project.
