The project emphasizes the implementation of advanced Helm charts, multi-cloud Kubernetes clusters, dynamic scaling, data replication, and cross-region failover strategies to ensure the resilience, scalability, and security of the e-commerce platform.
-
Multi-Cloud Kubernetes Clusters: Set up Kubernetes clusters on at least two different cloud providers across multiple regions to ensure redundancy and high availability.
-
Advanced Helm Chart Development: Developed Helm charts for all components of the e-commerce platform, utilizing Helm's advanced features like subcharts, library charts, and post-install hooks for complex deployments.
-
Geo-Redundancy and Traffic Management: Implemented geo-redundancy using Global Load Balancers and DNS strategies to direct users to the nearest available region. Integrate with a service mesh for sophisticated traffic management.
-
Cross-Region Data Replication: Established cross-region data replication for databases and persistent storage to ensure data consistency and availability across all deployments.
-
Dynamic Demand-Based Scaling: Implemented demand-based scaling to adjust resources dynamically based on geographical demand, incorporating custom metrics and predictive scaling.
-
Comprehensive Security Practices: Enforced strict security practices including network policies, RBAC, and automatic TLS certificate management. Manage secrets securely using Kubernetes secrets or external secret management tools integrated through Helm.
-
Automated Multi-Environment Pipelines: Created CI/CD pipelines for automated code promotion across multiple environments and regions, including automated testing, security scanning, and rollback strategies.
-
Monitoring, Logging, and Observability: Integrated with monitoring and logging tools like Prometheus, Grafana, and ELK Stack for comprehensive observability across all regions and cloud providers, with specific dashboards and alerts for multi-regional deployments.
