Ada Ball worked on the CDCgov/NEDSS-DataIngestion repository, focusing on deprecating and removing the legacy srte-data-service component to streamline the backend architecture. She eliminated associated assets, configuration, and references throughout deployment and repository files, ensuring a cleaner and more maintainable codebase. Ada updated Docker Compose configurations and revised CI/CD workflows, removing obsolete processes and aligning documentation with the new system structure. Using Java, YAML, and Docker, her work reduced the maintenance burden and minimized potential defects in the data ingestion pipeline. The depth of her contribution lay in thoroughly addressing architectural simplification and deployment clarity within a complex backend environment.
