Upasana Ghosh

Devops & Cloud Consultant

Summary

With over 6.5 years of extensive experience, I specialize in designing, implementing, and managing robust cloud-based infrastructure and applications. My expertise spans cloud architecture, automation, CI/CD pipelines, containerization, and infrastructure as code. I excel in configuring and maintaining a wide array of DevOps tools such as Jenkins, Git, Docker, Kubernetes, and Ansible. I have a proven track record in deploying highly available, scalable, and secure cloud solutions on AWS, Azure, and GCP. My hands-on experience includes Kubernetes orchestration, AWS services (EC2, S3, RDS, etc.), Docker container management, and CI/CD automation using tools like Jenkins and Bamboo. I am adept at integrating cloud formation scripts, Jenkins, AWS, and Chef for end-to-end automation. Additionally, I have operational proficiency with OpenStack distributions and have implemented Terraform for server provisioning and Ansible for configuration management. My background also encompasses setting up messaging systems like RabbitMQ and implementing ELK Stack (Elasticsearch, Logstash, Kibana) for AWS environments.
