Description

Maintained a high-availability virtualization cluster on Cisco UCS hardware, serving as a staging environment for distributed systems development. The stack includes VMware ESXi for bare-metal virtualization, segmented VLANs for network isolation, and a reverse proxy layer for secure external access.This infrastructure enables the simulation of complex deployment scenarios, including Kubernetes cluster bootstrapping and failure recovery testing.

Key Achievement

Demonstrates production-grade systems administration usage, managing the full stack from physical hardware assembly to Layer 7 application routing.
