PERSONAL PROJECTS
Front-End And Back-End Projects
Cloud & Infrastructure Projects
Private Cloud Infrastructure
I have hands-on experience in server administration and private cloud infrastructure. I utilized TrueNAS to set up and manage a RAID 5 storage system, creating a secure and efficient private cloud storage solution. This system hosts my personal portfolio website, which is currently live and operational. The project involved configuring network access, implementing security measures (VPN and HTTPS), and managing remote file synchronization and backups, simulating the functionality of modern cloud services.
AWS
Deployed a static website (portfolio) on an AWS EC2 instance running Ubuntu and Apache, configuring the server to serve the website with HTTPS for secure access. Managed the setup of Apache and configured security groups to control traffic, ensuring the website was securely accessible. The project involved setting up the server, maintaining the website, and ensuring smooth operation with minimal overhead.
