• ● Cost Optimisations ○ Saved $3k per month in computational usage by following methods ■ Using the Ratio base Nodepool strategy, which made our node usage to 80-90% from 50-60%. ■ Migration from 3 zones to single zone and handling HA by enabling Active-Active DR in other regions and zones. ■ Benchmarking instance type for our own apps and then deciding on a fleet of nodes for best utilisation and least costing machines (Trust me, if you ask any Public Cloud's Support, they will always try to sell you the most expensive instance type at all costs). ○ Saved $658k in migrating 9-10 PB data from AWS S3 to GCP GCS.

• ● Migrated DBs, Kafka and ZooKeeper to Kubernetes ○ Previously all DBs were running on EC2 (not RDS) and we had a DBE Team to manage them, so we moved them collaborating with DBE Team. ○ Now all lower environments are running 100% on Kubernetes and Production is running on 85% on Kubernetes.

• ● Migration from AWS Secrets Manager to Hashicorp Vault ○ NodeJS and Python based codes CICD were fetching secrets from AWS Secrets Manager, which was hindering our progress towards Cloud Agnostic Infra. ○ We deployed Vault and created a proper path based on labels, for proper pulling of secrets/config.
