SQL Server Administration Install, configure, and harden Microsoft SQL Server (2016/2017/2019/2022) in standalone and Always On (AGs) / cluster configurations. Own patching, service packs, cumulative updates, and in‑place/side‑by‑side upgrades with rollback plans. Implement and maintain backup/restore strategies (Full/Diff/Log), log shipping, and DR (site failover tests). Manage security: logins, roles, permissions, encryption (TDE), auditing, and compliance (e.g., CIS benchmarks). Performance management: indexing strategies, query tuning (execution plans), statistics maintenance, I/O & memory tuning, and baseline + capacity planning. Migration to AWSLead end‑to‑end migrations from on‑prem SQL Server to AWS using AWS DMS and native tools (BACPAC, backup/restore, log shipping, replication, SSDT). Migrate to Amazon RDS for SQL Server or Amazon EC2 SQL Server, and perform heterogeneous migrations to Aurora My SQL/Postgre SQL, My SQL, or Postgre SQL when required. Assess schema and code compatibility (e.g., SQL Server features not supported in target engines),



recommend refactoring or alternatives, and plan cutover strategies (full load + CDC, blue/green, canary). Build migration runbooks: discovery, assessment, Po C, dry runs, cutover, and post‑migration validation (data parity, performance, security). Optimize network and connectivity (VPC, security groups, VPN/Direct Connect, parameter groups, option groups). Troubleshooting & Reliability Diagnose and resolve issues during and after migrations: DMS task failures, CDC lag, data type mismatches, collation conflicts, LOB handling, constraint/index rebuilds, long‑running queries, and replication/log shipping breaks. Respond to P1/P2 incidents, conduct root cause analysis (RCA), and implement preventive measures (alerts, runbooks, automation). Monitor and tune AWS RDS/Aurora parameters, storage autoscaling, IOPS, and Cloud Watch alarms. Required Qualifications6–9 years as a SQL Server DBA/Administrator with robust product
