Projects
Infrastructure as Code Implementation for Cloud Migration, I played a key role in the migration of our on-premises infrastructure to the AWS Cloud, harnessing the power of Infrastructure as Code tools, particularly with Terraform. Through this initiative, I automated the provisioning and management of resources, significantly enhancing scalability while minimizing manual errors. To bolster our cloud security posture, I led the implementation of robust security measures and ensured compliance with industry standards using configuration management tools. Leveraging Terraform, I crafted infrastructure blueprints to efficiently provision and oversee AWS resources. By embracing Infrastructure as Code principles, I streamlined infrastructure deployment processes, further boosting scalability and mitigating manual configuration errors., Terraform, AWS, Ansible, Networking, Security, Bash Scripting, ArgoCD, GitHub Actions, ELK Serverless Web Backend Application Deployment and Management, I architected a serverless web backend on AWS, utilizing Lambda, API Gateway, DynamoDB, SNS, and SQS. All these services are serverless in nature, seamlessly integrating to send metrics and logs to CloudWatch and CloudWatch Logs. Prioritizing decoupling components and services that automatically scale in when they are not being used to optimize cost and performance efficiency., AWS Lambda, API Gateway, Serverless Framework, microservices, Database, Spring boot, Node.JS
