Primary Systems Administrator for the PHP Magento e-commerce platform. Secondary SystemsAdministrator for the Java e-commerce platform. Tasked with maintaining the health and up-time of more than thirty e-commerce websites, spread over multiple AWS regions, using Ansible as the primary configuration management software and SCALR as the AWS interface. Other duties include deploying code bases, maintaining Log capture and storage, and working with developers to troubleshoot live issues. --Used Ansible to automate the capture, transport and storage of all log files for both PHP and Java e-commerce platforms, preventing the loss of valuable information used in troubleshooting problems, as well as maintaining PCI-DSS compliance. Additionally created a central location and software for developers to parse logs, saving hundreds of man-hours per quarter.--Setup an Amazon backed Elasticsearch/Logstash/Kibana cluster, used to capture log traffic in real-time from 300+ servers. This is used by developers to troubleshoot live issues on 30+ websites. Created a new base template website environment, using CentOS 6, Nginx, Apache, PHP and Redis, to be compliant with PCI-DSS regulations for e-commerce. This was then used as the basis for all new client sites, making the new sites more secure, with a shorter setup and testing time-frame, thereby creating revenue sooner.--Used the Tsung open source software to perform load testing on PHP and Java websites. This allowed for better performance tuning in the PHP and Java e-commerce platforms, as well as better estimates for underlying dynamic server scaling and instance size. --Created a new website hosting infrastructure, onto which four low-traffic websites were migrated. This required modifying the PHP architecture, to allow multiple sites to share the same resources. The sites were moved with no end-user disturbance, and doing so saved approximately $800-$1000 per month in hosting costs.
