Designing and Implementation of IP Customization for Linux platform (Python) CloudVelox OneHybridCloud (OHC) now allows the customer to fully customize the network before launching runs. You may select a AWS VPC into which the server instance(s) will be launched, and then customize the Cloud IP of the server to match that VPC. Alternatively, you may leverage OHC to create VPC and subnets based off the internal IP address of the source server. Tasked with the designing and implementation of this feature from scratch.Designed and Implemented new APIs for the WebUI to interact with the Backend (Python) WebUI requires information from the backend to display to the customer. In order to get this information they needed a interface to go through and these APIs provide the required interface. Tasked with the design and implementation of data structures for the information that these APIs return.
