✔️ MISSION 1: In collaboration with the observability team, we have builded a serverless ETL pipeline based on Knative on top of a Google Kubernetes Engine cluster for automatic log format correction and ingestion coming from Kafka to Elasticsearch. This enabled observability team to not worry about logs format on the operational data side (applications and business) and focus on log exploitation on elastic search ✔️ MISSION 2: In a second project for internal use, we've worked on an automatic serverless infrastructure provisioning platform for Cloud Environments. By the use of Knative on top of GKE, we were able to let developers to deploy their desired infrastructure via a self-service web platform which interact with Terraform and Kubernetes behind the scene to automatically deploy resources on either GCP or AWS.
