Mastering GenieACS: Experiences from My Journey
Before GenieACS, updating configs meant tedious manual logins causing downtime and frustration. With GenieACS API and TR-069, automate firmware upgrades, monitor SIP status and detect connectivity issues instantly. Master the API, automate wisely, and significantly enhance platform efficiency.
"DDoSing" EKS & GKE to Study DR for My MSc Dissertation
Deploying on Kubernetes doesn't equal disaster recovery. My MSc research showed this clearly—comparing AWS EKS and GKE recovery scenarios with Velero backups taught invaluable, practical lessons.
Reliable Kubernetes at Scale: My Experience Creating an Audit Framework
Early in 2023, challenged by rising Kubernetes issues in production environments, I crafted an audit methodology to diagnose clusters, identify misconfigurations, and establish best practices. Delivered by summer, it enabled clients to transform reliability and performance.
