ON THE SUBJECT OF ME
I’m Raghavendra Rao(Raghav). I am a database guy. I work as Managing Consultant/Solution Architect in Enterprise-class Product company. I have started my career as Oracle DBA in 2000 and in the year 2009 I have chosen open source database PostgreSQL as my primary database. Since then, I have shared my knowledge(still continuing) by blogging on
- www.raghavt.blog - A dedicated site to publish articles ONLY on open source PostgreSQL database and other supporting tools.
- www.raghavt.com - Only reason to have this site, to separate commercial stuff from open source/community. Articles on this site are on various open source-based(Postgres) DBMS bundled with enterprise-ready tools to operate PostgreSQL at scale. These products comes with some cost & licensing/support.
My passion towards the databases made me to work with different databases Oracle(7.x- 12c), PostgreSQL (8.x – 10.x), SQL Server, MySQL & DB2. Having different databases experiences, today in my professional career I am helping customers to migrate their proprietary databases to Community PostgreSQL/EDB Postgres database. I have also, developed a proprietary based Database Migration Assessment Tool(DMAT) in Python with a built-in parser to give migration(efforts/days) estimates.
