@LoanLogics project:
As DevOps, for the Jenkins portion of the project, the goal was to improve the efficiency and reliability of the CI/CD pipeline. This involved creating new pipelines for various stages of the software development process, such as building, testing, and deploying. Additionally, existing pipelines were modified to better suit the needs of the organization. This included the integration of new tools and technologies, as well as the implementation of best practices for pipeline management.

For the AWS ECS cost optimization, the objective was to reduce expenses associated with the service. This involved conducting a thorough analysis of the organization's usage of the ECS service, identifying areas where costs could be reduced, and implementing changes accordingly. This could include scaling down unnecessary resources, implementing reserved instances, and using spot instances. Additionally, the organization implemented monitoring and reporting mechanisms to track and measure the impact of the cost optimization measures.

  • Hardware/software configuration and implementation of the FINA banking software at the National Bank of Tajikistan. This advanced software, written in Java, is designed to gather documents from finance companies for central bank use. The deployment of the FINA application was carried out on a Windows-based bare-metal server, utilizing hyper-v virtualization technology. A virtual machine was created on the hyper-v platform, on which the FINA product was deployed. This ensured the highest level of performance, compatibility, and stability. Additionally, I was responsible for configuring a secure VPN connection to support the safe and confidential transfer of financial data. With the successful implementation of FINA, the National Bank of Tajikistan now has a modern, efficient solution for document gathering and central bank operations, with added security through the VPN configuration and the utilization of virtualization technology.
