Projects
Admin API Microservices
Developed a set of Spring Boot microservices used to handle administrative and onboarding tasks for various middleware systems. Each microservice also was sending events to their respective Kafka topics when creating or updating new entities to be used for logging, analysis, and notification.
Event-driven Notification Service
Developed a Spring Boot microservice that listens to various Kafka topics and sends notifications and alerts to clients via Google Chat, Microsoft Teams, OpsGenie, and/or email. Events being received and sent include registration credentials, CDC events, application status, and Cloudwatch alerts.
