Featured project

DevOps capstone

OpsBoard

An incident management API that I took from a Flask prototype to a reproducible AWS environment.

  • Containerized Flask, Nginx, and MySQL and added automated tests and container image publishing in GitHub Actions.
  • Recreated the AWS stack with Terraform, then tested S3 state locking and recovery from a previous state version.
  • Stopped Nginx during a lab to trace how an unhealthy load balancer target triggers CloudWatch and SNS alerts and how the system recovers.
