Kubernetes Migration and Infrastructure Modernization

Led a comprehensive migration project to transition an e-commerce platform's workloads to Kubernetes, significantly improving scalability and operational efficiency. Key responsibilities and achievements included:

Containerized existing applications using Docker, optimizing them for Kubernetes deployment

Designed and implemented a robust AWS infrastructure using Terraform, including VPC setup, security groups, and IAM roles

Provisioned and configured an Amazon EKS cluster to orchestrate containerized workloads

Migrated stateless applications to EKS, ensuring zero downtime during the transition.

Set up EC2 instances for supporting services and implemented auto-scaling groups for improved resource management.

Utilized S3 buckets for static asset storage and implemented CloudFront for content delivery.

Migrated and optimized database systems using Amazon RDS for improved performance and reliability.

Implemented Elasticache for caching frequently accessed data, reducing database load and improving response times.

Designed and implemented CI/CD pipelines using Github Actions and CircleCI, automating the build, test, and deployment processes.

Configured monitoring and logging solutions using Prometheus, Grafana, and NewRelic for comprehensive system observability.

This project resulted in a 40% reduction in infrastructure costs, 99.99% uptime, and a 30% improvement in application performance. The modernized infrastructure also enabled the development team to deploy updates 5x faster than before.
