Process Improvement Award

Got a call from Rajeev saying we got the "Process Improvement Award" for my last nomination before coming to DSTWS. Happy to hear about it. Getting compliments/awards is always a great feeling :-) 


But this time I am very much happy as even after leaving people still remembering and recognized the change we did in SIS. 

I should thank one important person "Adam" from Inflectra, Who helped a lot,  responded back with answers for all my stupid questions :-)

Thanks to Ryan for the freedom and support.

Rupee symbol interpretation

I am not sure whether Mr. Uday Kumar derived/designed the Rupee symbol by keeping us in mind, But unfortunately it is 100% in line and matching with our current status.

I feel this is a very good interpretation.

City Boy Sreeram Chandra won the fifth season of the music reality show Indian Idol.


He was announced as the winner by Mr. Amitabh Bachchan.  


I feel he won because of peoples support from all over India. We should really Thank to all of them.  He is blessed with a good oppertunity and he should continue the journey as a Real Idol to all.  I really dont want to see him as another Anchor in Idol show or lost in the crowd like others.


Best of Luck Sreeram, Keep Rocking.

A very good example on Small mistakes, and their imapct on application

Yesterday we went to MySchools office. A big discussion was going on some database locking issue. It's interesting, their problem is application able to process two transaction successfully, from the third it is locking the table and execution is getting failed with timeout error. We asked to open the code, and we verified further. Finally I found the cause.  Close statement is missing in the code.  :-)

The Code which helped me to resolve the issue



private void OnPostInfoClick(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
string strId = UserId_TextBox.Text;
string strName = Name_TextBox.Text;

ASCIIEncoding encoding=new ASCIIEncoding();
string postData="userid="+strId;
postData += ("&username="+strName);
byte[] data = encoding.GetBytes(postData);

// Prepare web request...
HttpWebRequest myRequest =
(HttpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create("http://localhost/MyIdentity/Default.aspx");
myRequest.Method = "POST";
myRequest.ContentType="application/x-www-form-urlencoded";
myRequest.ContentLength = data.Length;
Stream newStream=myRequest.GetRequestStream();
// Send the data.
newStream.Write(data,0,data.Length);
newStream.Close();
}
