Designing resilient hybrid cloud infrastructure for modern enterprises.

I'm Sid Laxamana, an Enterprise Network Engineer specializing in hybrid cloud infrastructure. My background spans enterprise routing, SD-WAN, security, and cloud connectivity, with hands-on experience designing production-inspired AWS environments. Every project is documented from architecture through implementation to demonstrate practical engineering rather than isolated lab exercises.

Portfolio on AWS

Built on AWS-native services end to end using Amazon S3 for static hosting, Route 53 for DNS, CloudFront with Origin Access Control as the global CDN, AWS WAF for protection, ACM-managed TLS, and a secure GitHub Actions CI/CD pipeline using GitHub OIDC, AWS STS, and cross-account IAM roles. Future enhancements include Infrastructure as Code with Terraform.

Enterprise Hybrid Cloud Homelab

My homelab is a continuously evolving enterprise test environment where I prototype networking, cloud, identity, security, monitoring, and automation solutions before documenting implementation details and design decisions.
