Two disciplines, one habit
A PhD trains you to distrust a result until you've verified it three different ways. Production infrastructure rewards exactly the same instinct: don't trust a deployment, a metric, or a "it should work" until you've tested it under the conditions that actually matter.
That's the thread connecting my research background in Gas Engineering to the work I do now as a Cloud/DevOps Engineer — and it's the lens this blog will write from.
What this site is for
This is a running log of the technical problems I run into (and solve) working with:
- Cloud architecture across AWS, Azure, GCP, and Alibaba Cloud
- Kubernetes and container orchestration at production scale
- CI/CD pipelines and infrastructure as code
- Observability, incident response, and reliability engineering
What to expect
Expect fewer "10 tips" listicles and more write-ups that look like:
# the command that actually fixed it
kubectl get pods -A --field-selector=status.phase!=Running
along with the reasoning that got me there — including the dead ends.
