Iliu worked extensively on modernizing and enhancing Azure Service Fabric management across the mcgallan/azure-rest-api-specs and Azure/azure-powershell repositories. Over eight months, they migrated API definitions from OpenAPI to TypeSpec, refactored resource models, and introduced new features such as VM image selection, zone balancing, and node type management. Using C#, PowerShell, and TypeSpec, Iliu improved .NET SDK compatibility, streamlined cluster creation workflows, and addressed breaking changes in API versioning. Their work enabled more robust automation, backward-compatible upgrades, and consistent documentation, while also resolving bugs in CLI and PowerShell modules to support evolving Azure infrastructure and customer deployment needs.

August 2025: Delivered stability and capability improvements for Service Fabric deployments across Azure PowerShell, Azure CLI, and REST specs. Key outcomes include: fixing upgrade policy overwrite behavior for RecreateApplication; updating the Service Fabric SDK to 2023-11-01-preview with VM size support; introducing AutoGeneratedDomainNameLabelScope for better FQDN handling during CA migrations; enabling parameter-file driven cluster creation with improved error messaging; and aligning .NET emitter to treat timespan types as strings to preserve C# SDK compatibility. Explored node-type cmdlets with a controlled rollback to maintain release stability while evaluating future improvements.
