What I’m currently up to Link to heading

  • I’m working in a super-cool team on cloud platform related projects at Akamai Technologies India. Lots to learn!
  • In my spare time, I’m contributing to a vendor-neutral OCI-native container image/artifact registry project-zot. I’ve recently been working on a scale-out solution for load-balancing on the registry for both cloud storage and local on-prem storage.
  • As a personal learning, I’m working on a GNU tar clone in Rust in an attempt to learn the language.
  • I’m also working on a really basic Key-Value store that uses the Redis RESP Protocol and will eventually have a bunch of different storage engines.
  • I’m revamping an old database migration utility project with better software engineering practices.
  • Building out this website!
