Qualification and honors:

The co-founder of "tdb" studied product engineering and lectureship for vocational schools from 1987 to 1991 in Erlangen and Munich and worked afterwards as a tutor at Fachschule für Maschinenbau in Nuremberg, where he joined the examination board for engineering technicians in 1992.

Besides Hermann Goetz made sure in numerous customer projects that the open source database „tdb“ was practice-orientedly enhanced. Under his direction the tdbengine grew up to a very powerful and fast database engine, which forms an ideal basis for web applications.

In 1994, Hermann Goetz gave up his work as a tutor at Polytechnikum Nürnberg and concentrated as a business leader of the GmbH completely on his "life's work", for which he was already honoured several times. Thus, in 2001 he was added to the person encyclopedia "Who is Who" (see http://www.whoiswho.co.at), and in 2005 he won a nomination at the international "e-logistics Award" in Saarbruecken.

Since 2001 Hermann Goetz is responsible for the adoption of the tdb Software Customer information manager (CIM) into the different brands of the company AGCO in all EMEA countries. His experience with the conversion of uniform software in several countries under different conditions is very extensive. In all these projects Hermann Goetz is involved this very day, which speaks for the quality of his work and the appreciation on the part of the clients.

" According to statistics, over 60 per cent of all software projects fail. A majority of these projects are stillbirths from the first moment on. All the projects which were begun by tdb were successfully brought to end. Why? Because we have estimated correctly the extent of the project, we know so exactly our tools and also what can be realized with which expenditure. Usually to a much lower budget than our competitors would expect."
