Harvard Business School

In the education industry, one of the most important aspects is ensuring that students have the best experience possible. To achieve this, universities and colleges are constantly looking for ways to improve their processes and systems.

One such project was undertaken by Harvard Business School  in the year 2022. The project aimed to develop a digital portal for MBA admissions, alumni experience, and executive education.

Services

We were responsible for designing and architecting the database and data warehouse including adding new features to already available applications. Our goal was to make the application scalable, portable, and efficient through the implementation of new architecture. Additionally, we designed and developed several data feeds in Informatica.

We also worked on multiple milestoimultaneously, with a primary focus on the development of the portal. This included the maintenance of data feeds already developed and deployed in Informatica, as well as the development of data pipelines and validation of data feeds. We also performed performance tuning, working on scripts to scale the data.

Our team was also responsible for database development in SQL, TSQL, PLSQL, using complex database development techniques such as stored procedures, scalar and table returning functions, views, materialized views, and dynamic SQL in RDBMS. We also used Gitlab, JIRA, and CICD pipeline deployments. The ETL process was optimized by executing tasks in parallel, avoiding blocking tasks and moving the execution into stored procedures and database objects.

Technology

Our team utilized a variety of technologies, including Oracle 12g, Git, JIRA, Agile, Database Operations, Performance Tuning, Data warehousing, Informatica, Database Architecture, Designing, Modeling, and Administrations, CICD, to design and develop the portal. This allowed us to handle large amounts of data, provide a seamless user experience, and ensure the portal’s scalability. Additionally, the use of Agile methodology allowed us to complete the project on schedule and within budget.

Outcome

The portal was successfully launched in September 2022 and has since been well-received by the university community. The MBA admissions process has been streamlined and made more efficient, and the alumni experience has been greatly improved. Additionally, the executive education courses have been a huge success, with many professionals taking advantage of the opportunity to continue their education.The portal  has received positive feedback from the university community. The development of the digital portal has greatly improved the experience for all stakeholders and has helped the university to better serve its students and alumni.
