I had the pleasure to work with Dilip Kumar when he was in Xchanging. All my implementations were sent to him to scrutinize them to make sure they comply with Xchanging Database Management Standards. I always found him very knowledgeable and precise. With diverse database versions and sizes (both Core and EBS) amounting to more than 150 across Xchanging, Dilip had been winner of XTS Senior Management Team awards for effective management of the databases. He is very good in handling Core DB functionalities, Performance Tuning, Partitioning, EBS Cloning/Patching, RMAN & ASM alike. I wish him success in his future endeavours.
