Worked on the rackerlabs/genestack repository to deliver disaster recovery documentation for MariaDB backups stored in Swift with tempauth, providing detailed restoration procedures across multiple regions. Developed automated Redis deployment using an operator and Helm, introducing cluster override configurations and installation scripts to streamline onboarding and reduce manual steps. Upgraded the Kube-OVN Helm chart to address Kubernetes networking compatibility and stability, minimizing deployment outages. The work emphasized operational consistency, reliability, and clear documentation, leveraging technologies such as Kubernetes, Helm, and Redis, and using Bash and YAML for scripting and configuration to support scalable, maintainable infrastructure and database management workflows.
December 2025: Delivered a stability-focused Kubernetes networking upgrade by upgrading the Kube-OVN Helm chart from v1.14.11 to v1.13.14 in the rackerlabs/genestack deployment. This change addresses compatibility gaps and reduces deployment outages, with full change traceable to commit 630a98f111117eca86674f13b5252f528fb06d5a. Impact: improved cluster reliability and smoother upgrades.
