About
Final-year IT student passionate about observability, reliability, and cloud-native backend systems. OpenTelemetry (CNCF) contributor, one of the largest open source observability projects under CNCF.

My projects run on Kubernetes with full observability (OTel, Prometheus, Grafana) and handle 225+ RPS at P95 < 1.19s with 0% errors.
I write about backend architecture, SRE practices, and cloud-native observability. 🚀
