Projects

GeekOS: Augment a Unix-style operating system kernel skeleton for a PC-like x86 platform by implementing pipe, fork, signals, virtual memory, and file system in C

MeeshQuest: Wrote a mapping program that supports displaying a highlighted route; calculating shortest routes (based on time or distance); generating driving instructions

Database Project: Analyze requirements for, Design, implemented, documented, and demonstrated a database system that supports a Multi-Media Data Aggregator

Codelab03: Demonstrates how latency may be reduced when serving data from storage (S3) by using a content delivery network (CloudFront); Download time of a 7MB JPEG, hosted in the Asia Pacific region (Sydney) was lowered from 6.8 to 1.7 seconds

Codelab04: Teaches students how a Wordpress site can be deployed using an EC2 instance with a basic LAMP(Linux, Apache, MySQL, PHP) server; Additionally, created an AMI to speed future deployment

Codelab06: Shows how a website service might be made to degrade gracefully with scale through the use of a load balancer (ALB); Stress testing was conducted using beeswithmachineguns to ensure 4 instances shooting 10k requests, 250 at a time, had a mean response under 3 seconds
