Cloud-Native Platform Engineering
summary
Legacy fixed‑income index is reengineered into domain‑bounded microservices using Kubernetes and Apache Airflow, containerized with Docker, CI/CD via GitHub event‑driven pipelines, and Kafka for decoupling plus a time‑series DB for ticks. Data grows fivefold in three years was handled; a Kafka stress test survives three times expected peak, database reads drop 90%, autoscaling manages 20× load spikes, and calculations drop from ~30 minutes to an 88% reduction enabling continuous client access and zero downtime migration with a phased strangler lift.
