Services
Specialized middleware engagements. Scoped to fit.
Every engagement is scoped to your organization's specific environment, scale, and compliance requirements. All work includes documentation, runbooks, and knowledge transfer.
IBM MQ Engagement
IBM MQ Architecture & HA
Design, deploy, and harden IBM MQ for mission-critical workloads.
Whether you're standing up a new IBM MQ environment or need to modernize an aging deployment, I design highly available clusters (RDQM, Multi-Instance, NativeHA), automate day-2 operations, and ensure your environment meets compliance and uptime requirements.
What's Included
- HA cluster design (RDQM / NativeHA / Multi-Instance MQ)
- Disaster recovery automation with Ansible
- Security hardening & TLS configuration
- Day-1 / Day-2 runbooks and documentation
- Ops team knowledge transfer
Technologies
Ideal for
Financial institutions, government agencies, and any firm with IBM MQ already in production or planning adoption.
Kafka & Streaming Engagement
Kafka & Real-Time Data Pipelines
Architect and deliver Confluent Kafka and Apache NiFi at enterprise scale.
From greenfield event-streaming platforms to complex multi-cloud Kafka deployments, I design ingestion pipelines, schema management, and NiFi data flows that handle millions of events per second with the reliability your business demands.
What's Included
- Confluent Kafka cluster architecture (on-prem / cloud)
- Apache NiFi data flow design and deployment
- Schema Registry and topic governance
- CI/CD pipelines for Kafka on Kubernetes (EKS / AKS)
- Monitoring, alerting, and SLA dashboards
Technologies
Ideal for
Organizations needing real-time security log ingestion, data lake feeds, or event-driven architectures at DoD / Fortune 500 scale.
RabbitMQ Engagement
RabbitMQ Migration & Containerization
Modernize RabbitMQ to Kubernetes Operator with zero message loss.
Legacy RabbitMQ deployments hit scaling and operational walls. I migrate clusters to the RabbitMQ Kubernetes Operator on OpenShift or vanilla Kubernetes — implementing multi-tenant security models, GitOps-managed topology, and automated operations.
What's Included
- Kubernetes Operator deployment and migration plan
- Multi-tenant vHost / security model implementation
- GitOps-managed cluster topology (Helm / ArgoCD)
- Zero-downtime queue migration execution
- Operations team training and documentation
Technologies
Ideal for
Firms with on-prem RabbitMQ who want cloud-native reliability, auto-scaling, and reduced operational burden.
Cloud & DevOps Engagement
Cloud Platform & DevOps Automation
Infrastructure as code, CI/CD, and Kubernetes for middleware workloads.
Enterprise middleware doesn't run itself. I design and implement the cloud infrastructure, CI/CD pipelines, and automation frameworks that make your middleware platforms reliable, observable, and easy to operate — at any scale.
What's Included
- Kubernetes cluster design and hardening (EKS, AKS, OpenShift)
- CI/CD pipeline implementation (GitLab, GitHub Actions)
- Infrastructure as Code (Terraform, Ansible, Helm)
- Observability stack (Datadog, Dynatrace, Prometheus)
- Multi-cloud architecture and cost optimization
Technologies
Ideal for
Organizations modernizing their middleware platform delivery or embedding DevOps practices into existing teams.
How It Works
Simple, transparent engagement
Inquiry & Scoping
Fill out the project form. I'll review your environment details and respond within 24 hours with a scoping call invitation.
Discovery & Proposal
A focused call to assess your current state, define scope, timeline, and deliverables — then a written statement of work.
Hands-On Delivery
Implementation, documentation, and knowledge transfer. I stay engaged until the platform meets your SLA requirements.
