Interactive Infrastructure

Anyone can generate an app. Keeping it running is a different job.

Explore a live infrastructure simulation that evolves from a single-server deployment into a scalable, self-healing platform. Orbit the architecture, inspect nodes, and watch the system react as traffic and infrastructure change.

booting architecture simulation…

Built with Three.js and vanilla JavaScript — no static architecture diagram.

01B / GLOBAL REACH

Local origin. Global reach.

Bring the application closer to your users.

Explore single-region delivery, regional failover, and global multi-region deployments. Simulate an origin outage and watch how requests respond.

Selected Projects

A tennis storefront on AWS, two Kubernetes platforms, and tools for directory administration and business reporting.

Featured AWS project

Medusa Tennis Storefront on AWS

A Canadian tennis shop with CAD pricing and inventory across six product collections. Medusa runs the catalog, and Aurora PostgreSQL holds the store data in a private subnet. Terraform provisions the AWS infrastructure. For catalog maintenance, I connect through an EC2 bastion over SSH using credentials stored in Secrets Manager.

Container platform

Talos Kubernetes Platform on Google Cloud

Three Talos control-plane nodes and one worker run a self-managed Kubernetes cluster on Google Compute Engine. An external TCP proxy load balancer provides a single API endpoint. Terraform provisions the infrastructure, while Talos provides an immutable operating system managed through its API.

Enterprise tooling

Active Directory Explorer (ADX)

Find an account from a partial name, review its groups, and calculate its expiry date in one desktop app. ADX also supports bulk provisioning and moving accounts between organizational units. A React interface calls a native C# LDAP sidecar, with local caching for repeat lookups.

Self-Hosted Media Library on Oracle Cloud

Browse and stream a personal media collection with Jellyfin. Sonarr and Radarr organize shows and films, while Oracle File Storage gives services a shared library on Kubernetes. The repository includes Helm configuration for each service and Argo CD manifests for deploying changes from Git.

Northwind Operations Dashboard

Explore orders, customers, products, and revenue in a React dashboard backed by Azure SQL. Open an individual record to review or edit it through a containerized Django REST API. GitHub Actions deploys the frontend to Azure Static Web Apps and the API to Azure App Service.
