Consulting and optimization of existing software and development processes.
My contribution to improving the portal product from Beta Systems lay in well-founded analysis and measurements with data of varying complexity. My goal was to optimize the performance of the SQL queries and the interface between the backend and the database, as well as answering open questions about the architecture, libraries and solving complex challenges. In ad- dition, some of my advice was for the development process, organization and working with customers.
