Project Name: Pre-processor and Data Warehouse Application Suite

Duration: November 2015 – April 2022

Organization: Publishers Circulation Fulfillment, Inc. (PCF), Billerica, MA, USA

Designation and Duration:

Associate Software Engineer Projects at Cognizant Technology Solutions Private Limited (November 2015 – February 2019)

Software Engineer Team Lead at Cognizant Technology Solution Private Limited (March 2019–April 2022)

Description:

PCF is the leading independent newspaper home delivery company in the U.S. More and more publications are relying on PCF as their distribution partner. It currently has over 70 clients across the United States. Pre-Processor is a Framework 3.0.NET application. To process client files, an FTPFileWatcher Windows service was developed, which periodically checks the file(s) availability on the FTP and, if the file(s) exist, downloads them into the application server's local folder and triggers the Pre-processor application and client-specific business rules. Then the pre-processor will process the client's input files, compare the input file data with the master data, generate different transactions (deltas) based on the changes, and finally store the data in the SQL Server database. After the transaction generation completes, the XI process kicks off, which generates XI files to feed XI, which feeds SAP. By the end of the day, SAP generates shipping orders and feeds data to the Route Smart application.
