  1. West Shore Database Synchronization Creating Coordinated Databases

  2. The Problem • Two databases exist for the West Shore Evangelical Church • These systems both contain membership data • They are unable to combine or directly link the information • There needs to be a way to synchronize information between the two databases to keep up-to-date and accurate church records

  3. What We Did • First of two major objectives is complete • Member information is extracted out of the source database and is ready for insertion into the second, target database • Upload will be coming…

  4. Value Gained • With the work that has been completed, the administrator can easily obtain the records that need to be updated • Hand entry will still be required until the upload process is finished, however, previously there was no way to find new or updated records without tedious manual searching

  5. Lessons Learned • It is great to have a technically knowledgeable liaison for a project • Critical thinking about the application before its creation is necessary for product success and transition • It is easy to get over ambitious early, before problems are introduced into the system • It is hard to estimate time and functionality before doing the project, but still very valuable to do so

  6. Database Synchronization Team • Doug Ader • Eli Landers • Berenice Vasquez-Dominguez
