A&I Solutions would like to announce the Employee of the Week, Brad Watson - Brad is a Solutions Architect on the A&I Service Assurance Team

(PRWEB) June 06, 2012

As a solutions architect, Brad enjoys helping companies identify bottlenecks and common problematic components. He also likes providing adaptive solutions that help clients use APM effectively in their specific environments.

Brad explains, I enjoy hearing what problems clients are constantly facing and helping them identify the source of those problems to create a workable solution. Rather than coming in and trying to push a certain agenda or preferred approach for an APM configuration, I like to work with the client and try to provide them a solution that is desirable to them and doesnt require any policy changes or heartache.

He specializes in Introscope dashboarding and Scripting. These two tasks involve application diagram dashboarding, server specific dashboarding, high-level overview dashboarding, Bash and Perl scripting for Introscope shell actions and automated reporting, and EPAgent scripting via Perl or Java programs.

New to the team, Brad has worked with two major clients, CapGemini and GE Capital.

Success Story:

While working as an APM administrator at Duke Energy, Brad wrote a program to replicate Introscope management modules to other servers and environments. This program was used to automate management module creation across hundreds of application servers at Duke Energy, which saved the APM team hours of manual, error-prone work. The program has since been refined, packaged into the APM Toolkit that A&I is developing internally. It has greatly aided in the dashboarding, metric grouping, and alert creating processes at current client sites. In addition to this, other architects within the A&I Service Assurance Team have used the tool during deployments for their own clients.

Recommendation:

A&I Solutions would like to reveal this week"s Employee of the Week, Janette Olano. Janette is a Technical Consultant on the A&I Service Assurance Team.

(PRWEB) June 13, 2012

Janette has played a major role at A&I Solutions. She led an upgrade for the A&I Solutions website, setup a demo environment for Application Performance Management (which will be used in A&Is APM webinar series), and developed the Wiki site for A&I Solutions. Prior to becoming a consultant with A&I Solutions, Janette was a senior Java software engineer, who was a technical lead that maintained the United Airlines booking engine.

Janette explains, I love development. I love creating an application from scratch–building something from nothing! I may be a product software expert now who deals mostly with implementation, but I always seek for any opportunity to get my hands on coding. Whenever there is a gap in a client’s solution (a missing automated task, need for formatted results, more metrics, etc.), I quickly provide it to them with my scripting skills and expert knowledge of the APM product.

She specializes in Application Performance Management implementation installation, dashboards/alerts customization, report generation, setting up automated tasks thru shell scripting, and customized java plugins for EPAgents.

Specifically, Janette has built services interfacing with GDS/CRS hosts (Apollo, ITA, Covermore, etc.) for the Travel Distribution Platform. Also, Janette was involved in projects containing requirement analysis, client interfacing, team coordination, and design and development.

Since becoming a member of the A&I Solutions team, Janette has worked for SeaWorld, Adventist Health System, Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority (WMATA), and is currently working with Liberty Mutual.

Success Story:

While working for Liberty Mutual, Janette displayed her strength in Java development. Recently, she wrote an improved log monitor EPAgent plugin that processes both non-encoded and encoded log files. This feature was not available in Liberty Mutuals current system. She, also, upgraded a web application that monitors Agents and retrieves data from a persistent DB, creating an easier and more convenient process for the firm.

Recommendation:

I’ve worked with Jett for several years and have always been impressed with her. She’s very smart, detail-oriented and has always been a leader within any team she works with. Along with being an excellent developer in existing project environments, she is also able to learn new technologies easily and can quickly adapt to new environments. I highly recommend her. Linda W.
