March 2025 Monthly Summary focusing on key accomplishments, with emphasis on business value and technical achievements across two repos: wazuh/wazuh-virtual-machines and wazuh/wazuh-installation-assistant.

February 2025 performance summary across wazuh-virtual-machines, wazuh-docker, and wazuh-installation-assistant. Delivered features to strengthen deployment pipelines, fixed a critical AMI creation certificate verification issue, and improved inventory management for offline and automated installations. Major impact includes more reliable OVA/AMI builds, safer Docker image deployments with beta tagging, and streamlined installation workflows, supported by updated documentation and changelogs.

In January 2025, two major features were delivered for wazuh/wazuh-installation-assistant: offline installation testing and provisioning workflow improvements, and ARM architecture support (aarch64/arm64). The offline workflow included refactoring the offline installation test script, fixing provisioning bugs, adjusting workflows, refining Python installation logic across OS versions, updating defaults and logging, and enhancing user feedback during the installation process. ARM support added architecture-aware package naming for RPM/DEB, improved offline download logic, and clearer error messaging for unsupported architectures, along with changelog updates and CI base image enhancements. Overall, these changes reduce installation friction in offline environments, extend platform coverage, and improve reliability and maintainability. Business impact: smoother deployments in air-gapped environments, broader hardware support, and faster, more diagnosable installations. Technologies/skills demonstrated: Python automation, scripting and test refactoring, multi-arch packaging adjustments, enhanced logging and user feedback, changelog/CI hygiene, and offline-first deployment patterns.
