About Me

The engineer
behind the systems

I'm Syed Asif, a DevOps & Cyber Security Engineer at FCOOS Technologies in Bengaluru, where I design, build, and maintain the Linux infrastructure that keeps the business running 24/7.

My focus is on high-availability architecture — from Galera database clusters and HAProxy load balancers to enterprise mail systems with LDAP replication and distributed storage. I care deeply about uptime, security, and system resilience.

I hold an RHCSA certification from Red Hat and have hands-on experience across the entire DevOps and security stack — from bare metal to containers, from VPN tunnels to full observability with Prometheus and Grafana.
