Idea Presentation

Configuration of ArgoCD pipeline for application deployment and maintaining all YAML repositories in GitHub by using Gen-AI.

• Challenge: Manual syncing of YAML changes to production via Ansible and Jenkins, with no control over changes.
• Solution: Configured ArgoCD to auto-sync YAML changes from a single GitHub repository to production, ensuring changes are tracked.
• Achievement: Utilized Copilot to convert 95+ YAML files to Helm templates, completing the task in a few hours with minimal errors.
• Efficiency: Without Copilot, 3-4 team members were needed to convert 95 YAML files to Helm templates. With Copilot, one team member.

• Proficient in troubleshooting and debugging Kubernetes clusters, adept at identifying and resolving complex issues to ensure smooth operations
• Improved incident response time by 40% through the development of shell scripts, integrating ManageEngine tools for Kubernetes monitoring to enhance performance, health, and availability
• Enhanced operational efficiency by implementing automation workflows using Ansible, resulting in streamlined processes and reduced manual intervention
• Managed day-to-day operations by leading and executing BAU tasks, ensuring smooth and efficient business processes
• Monitored and analyzed system performance using Kibana, pinpointing areas for optimization and enhancing overall system reliability
• Proficient in OpenShift for container orchestration, ensuring seamless application deployment and management
• Experienced in restoring Kubernetes clusters using etcd backups within OpenShift environments
• Implemented and managed SSL certification for various third party applications, ensuring secure communication and integrated certificate with deployment
