The Database Maestros

Christo Kutrovsky
DBA Team Lead

Christo leads a team focused on highly-available clustered Oracle environments. He is an active and highly technical blogger, and an enthusiastic participant on the Oracle users' conference scene. A dynamic presenter, Christo captivates his audiences with his detailed technical content and humourous style.

Christo is an expert in performance tuning at the database, operating system, and disk subsystem levels. His expertise extends to clustered configurations of Oracle RAC and ASM, as well automatic SGA and automatic PGA features of Oracle 10G.

Among his team's most important assignments is the management of Oracle systems for online grocery giant FreshDirect, including the Application Clusters that support their core business. Derek Felska, FreshDirect's Director of Technology Engineering, says: "We could not be more confident in Christo and his team's abilities to manage our environment. Our confidence was well placed: we got more done in the month surrounding this project than we had gotten done in the year prior to engaging Pythian's services."
