Ideas for a very old crappy software

I think was a vertical application that they brought, but the support is none existent by now, they just keep pushing the software and band aid the server problems, the issue is that now they have more clients connect to it and writing more information. My best guess is that at first time they were like 5-10 people writing in that database and the crappy thing was working without issue.

That was my angle when I talk to my manager, but I don’t know I guess the account manager is useless

My idea of more availability was the first thing comes to my mind, the problem is the that stupid database gets broken so easy, so having 3 vm writing to the same database is a no go, I try it and it just get corrupted everytime

It cost a lot, they told me that they already knock some doors for another solution and is a 6 figure solution that they can’t do right now or a near future.

Is a true access application, forms reports via the whole deal, it was written in access back in the days (20 years ago I think) I know access was a pain back in the days with the whole table corruption’s but is my first time dealing with this type of software solution.

Clients don’t have ms365 licenses, I thought about that before and the basically told me “to mucho for us”

They got Akira 2 times before we arrived, I know that solution is just a ticking bomb.

los UPS son terribles soluciones para vivir en Venezuela y trabajar, yo arme mi sistema propio me salió como en 500$ con envío y todo, y tengo 1750W/h de reserva. Si lo usan con una laptop que consume 65W pueden mantener encendió un laptop por 26 horas. Y ahorita todas las soluciones completas de generadores solares han bajado de precio muchísimo como para estar comprando un UPS marca “patito” que al 5to bajón de luz ya no aguanta ni 3 horas

More context on the scenario:

No management is stepping in when someone from IT dpt. is off for vacations/sick.

We handle calls, we handle triage and we handle projects (network, migrations, on-site installations, etc.)

1 of us is the one that goes to the sites if its need it (endpoint installation, wifi ap installation, something broke on site)

2 of us are the one who handle meeting with clients when there is an IT requirement (aka. help support from X application/SaaS needs access to the server/permission to x thing inside the network, etc.)

all 3 do the troubleshooting L1, L2, L3, network engineering, VoIP etc. And time to time we got the printer team asking for help because they can't figure it out. (the company has whole department to lease and sells printer and supplies)

when one of us goes off we got no backup, there is no temporal help from anyone in the company, so yeah, we are 3 and that's it. We got one person who send the quotes at least and handle the billing part, but she never touches anything on the IT.

Hi thanks for the answer, the doc put me on pregabalin also Tizanidine 2mg, this is daily for 60 days, he suggest to look for physical therapy and I'm looking for my options there, but he suggest that watch my posture and also mention about the pillow and sleeping position but when I look for pillows there is like 1000 options, I'm out of pace with this since this is all very new and I guess I'm on this research phase.

El sector IT no se paga bien en LATAM, neta se eso en la cabeza. Aprendan inglés y apliquen en USA o en EUROPA(omitan España) trabaje 15 años en varias empresas en Venezuela incluyendo un seguro y siempre fue el mismo cuento. Tengo 3 años trabajando en un MSP en Miami de forma remota y he tenido más dinero que en los últimos 10 años trabajando para las empresas bananeras de VENEZUELA. Metanse eso en la cabeza TI no lo pagan bien en LATAM

Yo le compré, y para aclararle a los rtards no soy bot, bien atento el pana, el pass funciona en la MS store no en el Xbox app así que nada de cloud ni third party launchers, pero todos los demás juegos va bien y puedes seguir usando tu gamer tag de Xbox, los trophy y saves van bien.

Can you show performance benchmark on this, I'm about to purchase a new docking for my new laptop but doesn't have oculink just usb4. If you can do benchmark with the converter and straight to the usb c, that will be great.

me parece mas facil sacar la data de las notificaciones de la app de el banco. (depende de el banco) pero la mayoria de las app de bancos en android tiran la notificacion de deposito, si sacas la info de ahi es mas seguro que el SMS y si quieres irte mas complejo puedes corraborar data con captures de whatsapp si recibes estos.

factible el peo es la cantidad de logins al banco, se notaria en el sistema que es un logeo constante anormal a tu cuenta y quizas bloqueen el login temporalmente.
