Developed two core features for Azure REST API specifications over a two-month period, focusing on scalable virtual machine management and resource optimization. Delivered the SkuMixPlacement API in the mikeharder/azure-rest-api-specs repository, enabling generation of placement scores for VM SKU mixes to improve allocation efficiency. Built the LaunchBulkInstancesOperation API for bulk VM management, introducing endpoints for creating, canceling, and tracking large-scale operations. Emphasized robust API design using TypeScript, JSON Schema, and Azure SDK development practices, with attention to documentation, security, and compliance. Enhanced automation, consistency, and maintainability across API versions, supporting efficient cloud resource orchestration and lifecycle management.
May 2026 was focused on delivering a robust bulk VM management capability and strengthening API quality for Azure REST specs. The work advances bulk orchestration, consistency across API versions, and security/compliance readiness, positioning customers to manage large-scale VM fleets more efficiently with reliable, well-documented endpoints.

April 2026 monthly summary for mikeharder/azure-rest-api-specs: Focused on delivering the SkuMixPlacement API under the Recommender pattern to optimize VM SKU mix placement and resource allocation. Implemented a new Microsoft.Compute/SkuSplit subservice with a singleton resource mixPlacementScores and a POST /generate, including full request/response models and SDK naming overrides. Enabled explicit VM sizes and VMAttributes support, with examples and automation artifacts (AutoRest readme, tspconfig) to streamline docs and SDK generation. This work lays the foundation for the 2026-05-05-preview and improves capacity planning and cost efficiency across Azure deployments.
