Project Spotlight: Zero-Cost Cloud Portfolio
- The Goal: Rapidly deploy a highly available, secure professional portfolio with zero recurring infrastructure costs.
- The Stack: Azure Static Web Apps, GitHub Actions (CI/CD), Custom DNS Routing.
- The Execution:
- Utilized AI-assisted pair programming to accelerate the creation of the HTML/CSS framework and refine the professional narrative.
- Established a fully automated CI/CD pipeline using GitHub Actions, ensuring that any code committed to the main branch triggers an automatic, zero-downtime deployment to Azure.
- Engineered a custom DNS workaround (A-Record to dedicated IP) to successfully route a domain registered on a platform lacking ALIAS record support, securing the site with an auto-generated SSL certificate.
- The Result: A globally distributed, automated portfolio delivered under budget, demonstrating practical application of DevOps principles and cloud resource optimization.
