About

I administer IBM WebSphere Application Server, Liberty Profile, and IBM HTTP Server environments across production, SIT, UAT, and Dev. My day-to-day includes SSL/TLS lifecycle management, fix pack upgrades, CVE remediation, JVM tuning, and 24x7 production support.

I'm actively expanding into cloud and DevOps — building hands-on capability with AWS (EC2, S3, VPC, IAM), Docker, and Kubernetes through self-driven labs and personal projects like this one.

This Site — Cloud-Native Portfolio Deployment on AWS

This portfolio runs in a Docker container on an AWS EC2 instance, fronted by Nginx with SSL/TLS termination via Let's Encrypt. Logs and metrics ship to AWS CloudWatch. The infrastructure (VPC, public subnet, IGW, security groups) is configured manually for learning.
