Sony Latin America 02/2002 - 12/2002 Miami, FL

Oracle DBA, Applications/Development Manager, Unix System Administrator

On this project, I created a complete production, staging and development environment for e-commerce and Internet catalog sites. It is composed of three tiers which have, four clustered Oracle Database Servers, four clustered ATG Dynamo/Oracle 9iAS application servers, and four clustered web servers. The environment holds twelve Sony web sites and is composed of twelve Sun Solaris Unix Systems, three Linux systems, and one Windows 2000 Server. I installed the operating systems, application servers and common software, designed the structure of the applications, databases, and their relations to the physical network. My daily tasks were system backups, database backups, file system recovery, oracle data recovery of deleted data or deleted files, shell script development, application & utility development and graphical user interface development. The purpose of the environment is to provide maximum security, speed, and reliable systems with multiple fail over systems. The development system is also designed for remote development access from more than twelve different countries. The system uses two types of application server software. The e-commerce sites use ATG Dynamo 5.1, and the rest use Oracle 9iAS.
