Over a two-month period, contributed to the govuk-one-login/ipv-stubs, ipv-cri-address-front, and ipv-core-front repositories by delivering eight features and resolving one bug. Focused on cloud infrastructure and DevOps, the work included migrating core CRI stubs to a GitHub App, implementing two-stage deployments, and enhancing CI/CD reliability using GitHub Actions and YAML. Resource optimization was achieved by reducing ECS minimums and introducing predictive scaling based on CPU forecasts. Observability was improved through enhanced container insights and refined auto-scaling policies. These efforts resulted in more secure, efficient, and maintainable deployment pipelines, with improved monitoring and cost-effective resource management.
February 2026 monthly summary focusing on delivering business value through resource optimization, enhanced observability, and predictive scaling across ipv-cri-address-front and ipv-core-front. Key improvements include: (1) Deployment Resource Optimization: reduced minimum ECS count in deployment templates from 6 to 2, lowering resource waste and cost; (2) Observability and Auto-scaling Enhancements: upgraded container insights to enhanced level and tuned alarms and policy steps to improve monitoring, responsiveness, and cost efficiency; (3) Predictive Scaling for ECS: introduced a predictive scaling policy based on CPU utilization forecasts to optimize capacity planning and utilization. These changes improved resource efficiency, reliability, and responsiveness, while enhancing monitoring, alerting, and future-ready scaling capabilities.

January 2026 performance summary for govuk-one-login/ipv-stubs: Key security, deployment, and pipeline improvements across the IPv stubs suite. Migrated core CRI stubs to a GitHub App, aligning core-cri-3rdparty-stub, core-cri-preprod-stu, and core-cri-stub with updated indentation, branch references, and secret refs. Implemented a two-stage deployment for core CRI stubs and refreshed styling as needed. Enhanced CI/CD reliability and compliance by moving token generation for ore-cri-stub to its own CI job, enforcing app-token usage in steps, stabilizing CI checkout from main, and adopting the ipv-config-reader-app environment with camelCase job naming and removal of branch references. These changes reduce blast radius, improve secret management, and standardize workflows, delivering faster, safer releases and clearer ownership.
