The MSIS Database Development group builds and maintains databases for the School of Medicine departments. Interfaces to the databases are based on Java technologies and Oracle and MS SQL database systems. The DB Development group also maintains certain third party databases for specific departments that use Oracle or MS SQL as their database system. Typical support for such third-party systems consists of working with the vendor for support issues.

Our Mission - “To provide the School of Medicine with information management solutions.”

Primary Functions

  • Apply this analysis to design, create, and implement a multi-division networked database.
  • Design new office procedures to take advantage of the database automation.
  • Train staff as well as management on using these database systems.
  • Work with division leaders to virtually connect their offices through the systems we develop.

Role

To provide analysis, definition and maintenance for the major software based business and educational systems at the School of Medicine. These systems are used to connect the major divisions in the School of Medicine. With these connections we can coordinate many departments into one seamless unit.
