Message

At Telus Digital Pvt. Ltd., I administer Microsoft SQL Server environments across Azure IaaS and PaaS, supporting development, test, UAT, and production. I automate DBA tasks and database migration processes with Python and PowerShell.

I also perform SQL Server-to-PostgreSQL proof-of-concept and migration activities, and use FueliX and GPT-based assistants for scripting, troubleshooting, and documentation.

At Capgemini, I migrated on-premises SQL Server databases to Azure and supported Always On Availability Groups and SQL Server upgrades. I created migration documentation using DMA and SSDT.

Across my roles, I’ve worked on backup and recovery, performance tuning, monitoring, and production support. I hold the Microsoft Certified: Azure Fundamentals (AZ-900) certification.
