Sistem Maklumat Rawatan Perubatan (SMRP) 1.1
SMRP is a web application used by Ministry of Health Malaysia to collect patients, encounters and ward
census data to generate hospital, state and national reports. The system faced performance and data issues.
Our team of 4 people was in charged to improve the system within 4 months period.
My tasks
Identify data issues – Find duplicate, orphan, out of range, inconsistency and problematic data.
Clean data – Create stored procedures to update records and remove duplicates for all transaction tables.
Improved database schema – Enforcing foreign key, unique key, indexes, and constraints (not null, unsigned).
Migrate data – Moved all the data from old database to improved database using Talend Open Studio ETL.
Tune MySQL – Edit MySQL configuration to utilise 32GB and 12 cores server.
Setup Nginx and MySQL on CentOS 6.3
Clean Wad List – Merge wad and set irrelevant wad to inactive.
Reports – 4 scheduler reports (pd206, rh206, rh207 and rh203). Real time query is too slow when dealing
with millions of records. Scheduler will trigger hourly to process the records into report specific format. The
report load very fast without overload the server.
Auto Daycare Discharge - Create scheduler and store procedure to auto discharge daycare records.
In this project, the client side was happy with the performance and improvement.
Technologies - Talend OpenStudio ETL, CentOS, Nginx, PHP and MySQL (stored procedure and scheduler).
