    paper End-to-End Infrastructure Automation: From Bare Metal to OpenShift Virtualization

    Designed and implemented a “Factory Model” automation pipeline using Ansible. This solution orchestrates the entire lifecycle of the data center: starting from provisioning physical bare-metal servers to installing the OpenShift Container Platform and finally deploying virtualized workloads (OCPv) automatically.

    paper Multi-Cluster Governance & GitOps Configuration at Scale (ACM)

    Architected and implemented a Zero-Touch Provisioning and governance framework for a multi-cluster OpenShift environment. By integrating ACM with GitOps principles, I automated the application of cluster configurations, security policies, and compliance standards across Development, Staging, and Production environments using the PolicyGenerator plugin.
