SQL Is a Black Art Even To Many IT Professionals

SQL is pronounced either S-Q-L (by seasoned experts) or SEQUEL by either newcomers or lazy people such as I. Oracle refers to their product as "S-Q-L or PL-SQL". Microsoft always refers to its version as "SEQUEL or SQL Server."

SQL now powers almost all enterprise accounting systems and almost all the world's publicly available transaction systems, booking systems, ATMs, banking and so on. SQL is fast, reliable, versatile and when well designed can handle 100,000+ records in just seconds while being accessed by hundreds of or even thousands of users.

Perhaps I Can Help You With an SQL Application.

I've been working with various versions of SQL since the late 80s and with Microsoft's SQL Server since 1995.

I've long been specialising in SQL transaction based management and business software. Very few people can boast 10 years of experience with Microsoft's SQL Server and if you have an application or a need for SQL based consulting, then I might well be able to assist.

My expertise covers the following areas:

• Data modelling and business rules
• Software and hardware design for systems designed to run SQL Server
• System design, installation and rollout of SQL server
• SQL data management and staff training
• SQL Backup and Disaster Recovery planning and management
• Data replication to one or more extra sites for security and so all users see the same data
• Importation of legacy data (existing data in different databases) into SQL Server
• Database consolidation
• Database migration
• Design of custom software to provide secure staff and authorised customer access to SQL based data
• Extraction of data reports from SQL systems
• Secure and Role Based thin client and remote access to SQL based data
