SurvivorPlan
http://survivorplan.io/On this project, I architected and developed the API layer of the application using Node.js and Swagger. Additionally, I developed the deployment process using AWS Elastic Beanstalk and Docker.
Johnson Health Tech. Co., Ltd.
Legacy applications were ported to Amazon Web Services Elastic Beanstalk servers using Docker, new applications were developed with API-centric architectures using Node.js, Express, MongoDB, MySQL, Swagger, and Docker.
The front-end applications were developed using Angular and Bootstrap and deployed as static applications to CDN services with a limited need for servers. Some lightweight services were migrated to Amazon Lambda functions and development pipelines were automated to improve overhead and need to separate system administration.
