Worked on the nationalarchives/da-terraform-modules repository to deliver modular, production-ready Terraform infrastructure with a focus on AWS SQS, CloudWatch, and Lambda integrations. Over four months, implemented features such as DLQ monitoring alerts, configurable CloudWatch alarms, and Lambda layer support, all aimed at improving observability, reliability, and modularity of cloud resources. Enhanced Terraform module outputs for accurate resource exposure and streamlined testing workflows through improved documentation. Used HCL and Markdown to define infrastructure as code and document processes, ensuring maintainable and testable modules. The work reduced mean time to resolution for message processing issues and enabled seamless cross-service integration.
This month focused on delivering modular, production-ready Terraform tooling for the nationalarchives/da-terraform-modules repository, with emphasis on AWS Lambda integration and improved testing workflows. There were no recorded major bugs fixed during May 2026 for this project suite.

February 2025 monthly summary for nationalarchives/da-terraform-modules: Delivered a Dead Letter Queue (DLQ) monitoring alert to enhance reliability and observability of message processing. Implemented a CloudWatch alarm that compares visible vs not visible messages over a 5-minute window to detect anomalies and alert on potential DLQ issues. This work is tracked under commit 170a81ab2d5f06c334d824a08d5d6e5b4c53a557, message: 'Alert when new messages enter the DLQ'. No major bugs fixed this month; focus was on feature delivery and monitoring improvements. Business impact: reduces MTTR for DLQ events, improves data integrity, and strengthens on-call reliability SLAs. Technologies: CloudWatch, Terraform modules, IaC, monitoring automation, Git.
