SetFocus LLC. – www.setfocus.com
Intensive, hands-on programs combine 360 hours of lecture on latest technology with weeks of projects that simulate
commercial database environment with specific deliverables and tight deadlines. Demonstrated proficiency in: T-SQL
queries, database construction, transactions, integration and reporting services.
Queries (tuned and optimized) involved joins (inner, outer, cross, self), cross applies, subqueries (correlated and self-
contained), common table expressions (CTE), user defined functions (UDF), stored procedures (Procs) and views.
Modeled (physical & logical) databases to BCTN Form, created & diagramed tables, with referential integrity and
complete schema, indexing (clustered & non-clustered, composite), and full annotation.
Transactions (CRUD) included triggers (DML & DDL), isolation levels, and structured error handling/ validation.
Integration Services emphasize ETL (Extract Transform Load) data flow solutions—import (for loops, validated) &
export (notifications)—from various sources (e.g. XML, OLE, CSV, Excel), to precedence constraints, to meet diverse
business requirements (lookups, expressions, variables, scripting).
Reporting Services generate management reports with full SSRS 2008 functionality—Tablix [Tables, Lists, Matrix or
pivots], aggregates, group expressions, drill-downs, filtering, parameters, filters—sorting, charts & gauges, dynamic
formatting, deploying (HTML) with automatic delivery via standard report subscriptions.
Independently developed databases (e.g. banking, retailing, publishing, manufacturing) to project specs based on
descriptive business memos. Scripted robust stored procedures, functions, and triggers to implement required
functionalities /restrictions. Created ETL solutions to read data (e.g. Products, Vendors, Orders) from CSV/XML
files on a network share into a SQL Server database. Solutions validated incoming data and performed
notifications when jobs completed/failed. Designed and generated reports on extracted SQL Server data using
SSRS 2008 reporting functionality (including Tablix controls). Logged and deployed reports/snapshots to web
(HTML) and scheduled automatic deliveries based on standard report subscriptions.
