- Implemented CI/CD Pipelines using DevOps tool chain such as build Artifacts using Maven, automate these by integrating with Jenkins, deploy code to the application server- Created Docker images using a Dockerfile, worked on Docker container snapshots, removing images and managing Docker volumes- Created Kubernetes cluster to deploy Docker images to pods and microservices in gcp cloud using terraform.- Created Jenkins jobs to deploy applications to Kubernetes Cluster.- Created a load performance test using Apache jmeter. Test was designed to be deployed to a kubernetes cluster using influx database installed on a pod and the report displayed with grafana reporting tool installed on a pod.- Created Jenkins piepline to run the terraform script which creates the kubernetes cluster with a master node and 3 slave nodes to install and run the load testing tool for jira, confluence and artifactory installations.- Build CI/CD pipelines using Jenkins for CI and CA release automation and Cloudbees for CD- Migrated in-Prem systems to the cloud. Scaling out a Deployment to ensure new Pods are created and scheduled to Nodes with available resources using Kubernetes. Scaling will increase the number of Pods to the new desired state.- Deploy an application using Jenkins, Ant/Maven, and Github
