As an architect, I focus particularly on performance and operational (production) requirements issues.

Accor Hotels
September 2015 to now
Lead architect, administrator, SME for a Solaris Supercluster Exadata hosted Oracle MDM (Siebel 8.1.1.15) implementation supporting 20 client applications through web services (up to 30000 transactions/minute). Serving Loyalty, Reservations, BI, Marketing, Newsletters, etc…
DB is about 3.5TB and contains about 60 million contacts and associated data.
My role is hybrid. I ensure day to day supervision, incident and problem management. Propose changes, mostly concerning performances and data quality and I have been recently trained on Splunk to improve incident detection and compliance to KPI. I also act as SME on most MDM matters. This is a typical SOA implementation with the MDM and the reservation system at the top of the pyramid. We feed a Datalake and multiple applications from tablet based PMS to Android/IOS apps. We continually expand the intake and supply of new data sets as the group expands. We are currently integrating the Fairmont Hotels & Resorts group within our systems. From a system that could barely support 5000 calls per minute and had total downtime of 84 hours at my arrival in 2015 we can now handle over 30,000 calls/min with a recorded downtime for 2018 of 16 minutes.
In collaboration with the business and running metrology workshops I defined both business and technical KPIs’, then designed real time dashboards and scheduled reports using Splunk.
