Project Manager – Senior Software architect
Omega Financial Solutions
Total years of experience :12 years, 3 Months
I’m the project Manager and the software architect of the migration of the Omega Portfolio Management Software from Borland Delphi 6.0 to Borland Delphi.Net.
This migration encapsulates the reengineering of the software from a Client/Server Application to a Service Oriented Software offering multiple services distributed using web services.
The reengineering encapsulates the development of multiple frameworks:
• Data Access Framework
• Exception Management Framework
• Security Management Framework
• Resource Management Framework
• Profile Management Framework
The integration of these frameworks to the system is implemented via an Aspect Oriented Programming Framework in order to eliminate the coupling between these framework and the different layers of the application.
The Database engine currently supported is Microsoft SQL Server 2000. The newer version will support Oracle 10j and Microsoft SQL Server 2005/2008.
The User interface is implemented using XAML.
Performance tuning is performed on multi level:
• Database Level: Database Schema Revision and indexing.
• Stored Procedure and Query Level: Speed up Query Execution Time.
• Business functionality: Code Review and fixing.
As Project Manager I:
•Create and execute project work plans and revises as appropriate to meet changing needs and requirements.
