Projects

Argo CD Multicluster Deployment of Two different Applications Using a Hub Spoke Model-

I have deployed two separate applications onto two distinct clusters. First, I have created a EKS cluster and install Argo CD on it, followed by deploying an application to this cluster. Next, I have set up another EKS cluster, connect it to the same Argo CD, and deploy a different application to the new EKS cluster.

CI-CD Pipeline-

I have built a pipeline that begins by pulling code from GitHub. Next, Mavencompiles the code and runs unit tests. The code is then sent to SonarQubefor a quality check. If the code quality passes, Maven builds the project, and the resulting artifact is deployed to Sonatype Nexus. Following this, a Dockerimage is created and pushed to DockerHub. Finally, the Docker image is pulled and run on a web server.

XenCenter to VMware Migration – 

Successfully migrated 50+ VMs from XenCenter to VMware ESXi using the Carbonite Migration Tool. Assessed the existing XenServer environment, developed a migration strategy, and coordinated with cross-functional teams (Network, Cyber) to ensure seamless connectivity between both platforms. Implemented a smooth cutover to VMware vSphere with minimal downtime and ensured post-migration validation.
