Expertise I can answer a wide range of questions related to Post Relational Databases, also called MultiValue databases. I'm also well verse in Business analysis, as these databases are commonly used in business.
Here's a non-exhaustive list of databases I can answer questions on:
U2 (UniVerse, UniData), D3, AP Pro, Mentor, Ultimate, Reality, UniData, jBase, Revelation, OpenInsight, Sanyo/Icon, Fujitsu, and many more.
Experience I bring more that two decades as a programmer, analyst, trainer, presenter, and advocate for these environments. I've been the President of the international U2UG, I've spoken at OSDA, RevConf, and other conferences. I Write for International Spectrum, and I have done work in multiple countries, in countless industries.
