During April 2025, Luke Houge expanded the storage capacity for the Frigate application in the rajsinghtech/kubernetes-manifests repository. He addressed the need for greater data retention and ingestion by updating the ceph.yaml configuration, increasing persistent storage from 5Gi to 50Gi. This change was implemented and validated using Kubernetes manifests and Git-based workflows, ensuring the deployment could handle higher data volumes without risk of saturation. Luke’s work demonstrated practical application of cloud infrastructure and Kubernetes skills, focusing on storage scalability and resilience. The project involved hands-on experience with YAML for configuration management, reflecting a targeted and well-executed engineering effort.
