I work on Azure, AWS, and GCP. Azure DevOps and GitHub Actions. Terraform. Kubernetes / AKS. CI/CD. DevSecOps. I work with product teams at ItsCloudHub, a Cloud and DevOps engineering practice. I write about production problems: pipelines that are green while the application is not, Terraform that works locally and fails in CI, and releases that rebuild instead of promoting the same artifact.
