Malena Casas developed and enhanced backend features for the wazuh/wazuh-indexer-plugins repository, focusing on robust API design, plugin development, and operational reliability. Over six months, she delivered a mock server for safe API testing, implemented scalable bulk command management using Java and OpenSearch, and modernized the command manager plugin through code refactoring and dependency cleanup. Her work included hard validation for critical commands, REST-driven data models, and resilient error handling with rate limiting and exponential backoff. By integrating job scheduling and improving documentation, Malena enabled safer configuration management, reduced operational risk, and ensured maintainable, high-throughput workflows for the platform.

December 2024: Delivered scalable bulk command management and indexing reliability improvements for wazuh-indexer-plugins. Implemented a bulk commands API with an array-based POST /commands endpoint and asyncBulkCreate in CommandIndex, leveraging OpenSearch bulk API for efficient multi-command handling. Optimized index template creation by moving it into the executor's indexing path so templates are created only when actual indexing occurs, replacing premature/implicit template submissions. These changes enhance throughput, reduce latency, and improve resource utilization, supported by API and test updates to ensure maintainability and quality.
