Highlights
Cut query times dramatically
Cut query times dramatically across a key system. Slow database queries make whole applications crawl, so tuning them to run far faster improved the experience and capacity of everything that depended on the data.
The one called when data is at risk
Relied on to keep critical databases fast, secure and available and to lead recovery when they fail, valued for dramatic performance gains and for a recovery that lost no data under real pressure.
Recovered with no data lost
Led a database recovery that restored service with no data lost. When a critical database fails, a clean recovery is the difference between an outage and a disaster, so doing it with zero loss reflects real DBA discipline.
