Created User documentation with context-sensitive html files. Within the Nuclear Data Warehouse Cube built data mining and analytics for the Backlog and

Forecasting. The project consisted primarily of reporting off OLAP cubes and the SQL OLTP data

warehouse. A CYO – Create Your Own Tool – was created using XML and .Net as a more versatile interface for end users to allow storing of report filters - multi-parameter and multi-selectable – that was also used for chaining reports and score cards with those same report filters. The Data Warehouse was over 80 gigabytes in size.

An extremely systematic and scalable method was used to build and contain this warehouse of VLDB Very large databases on multiple servers. SQL SSIS was used to achieve this. I architected, built and tested these large SSIS packages.

Using Visio and SSIS, I architected and developed, and data-modeled SSIS tasks – we used SSIS to manage the ETL processes and TSQL for much of the heavy lifting.
