Knowledge of App Services, and containerized environments, scripting in Linux is added advantage. Network Administration and Configuration: Design, set up, and configure network infrastructure in premises and Azure, including Virtual Networks (VNets), subnets, Network Security Groups (NSGs), and Azure Load Balancer. Implement and manage VPNs, ExpressRoute, and peering for secure connectivity between on-premises and cloud environments. Ensure optimal network performance and scalability. Database Administration: Administer MariaDB databases hosted on Azure, including setup, performance tuning, query optimization, and user access management. Implement and manage native Azure backups for data integrity and quick recovery. Security and Firewall Management: Configure and maintain firewalls using Fortigate, Azure and opensource Firewalls, Network Security Groups (NSGs), and other security tools. Implement security measures such as intrusion detection, vulnerability scanning, and compliance with standard ISO 27001 to protect sensitive data. Monitoring and Performance Optimization: Set up and utilize monitoring tools like Zabbix, Azure Monitor, Log Analytics, and Application Insights to track system performance, resource utilization, and alerts. Analyse logs, detect issues proactively, and optimize for high availability across all environments. Monitor network traffic, latency, and performance metrics. Analyse network logs, detect bottlenecks, and implement optimizations to ensure high availability and low latency for production and non-production environments. Backup and Disaster Recovery: Implement native, DB back-up solutions [Ex: DB dump, LSN based etc] Azure backup solutions for automated backups, restoration processes, and disaster recovery planning. Ensure regular testing of backups for production, staging, and test servers to maintain business continuity. Troubleshooting and Maintenance: Diagnose and resolve hardware, software, networking, and database issues. Apply patches, updates, and security fixes to Linux systems, apachi, etc. Perform routine maintenance to prevent downtime. User and Access Management: Manage user accounts, permissions, and role-based access controls (RBAC) in Azure and Linux environments.
