Specialities


ASC is focused on relational  databases, but is also prepared to do whatever it takes to help the client get the most out of its investment.


Relational Database Design

ASC is focused on relational databases, but has always been prepared to do whatever it takes to help the client get the most out of its investment. These have led us to add additional specialities:

Web Development

In many cases, web-based interfaces to relational databases present significant advantages as they can offer:

  • low cost of development
  • low training costs
  • vendor neutrality

Multimedia Applications

Multimedia approaches can offer another avenue to improving organizational effectiveness, particularly when integrated with web-based development.

System Administration

Performance of the underlying hardware and operating system can either impose significant penalties or on the other hand offer significant reliability and performance boosts, depending on how it is handled.

In some large shops, the system administration (SA) and database administration (DBA) roles are kept separate. But tighter integration of these two roles can offer significant benefits in terms of reliability and performance.

For instance, the restore options provided with many relational database products force restores to be done for the entire instance or not at all. Adding in backup procedures at the operating system level can offer significant improvements in flexibility, and also provide insurance against bugs and other failures in the database vendor's own products.

We offer a complete range of services including:

  • Vendor selection
  • Data modeling
  • Extract-Transformation-Load (ETL) design & development
