About
I am Greg M Lucas, owner and principal consultant at data-centric solutions ltd.
I am a technical Data Architect with over 17 years’ experience in data systems design, development and technical leadership across multiple sectors including finance, real estate and manufacturing. I have a broad skill set covering data modelling, T-SQL, SSIS & Informatica working with all versions of SQL Server including 2016 and Azure SQL DB/DW. I have been working as a freelance consultant in both London and Singapore since January 2007.
One of the guiding principles by which I work is that, to be effective, technology must add business value; so my primary focus is always on delivering working, high quality software designed to do exactly that. I believe that data, and the applications that consume it should be in place because of, not in spite of, the way a business works.
I am also passionate about improving Database Lifecycle Management (DLM) and in applying agile methods, especially TDD and build automation within the field of database development.
I have been happily married for over 16 years and enjoy reading and sailing in my spare time.
