This was a stint at feeding the startup bug! Over the last few years, I setup two divisions, one Terabyte Websites, to build and host websites, provide complete cloud solutions and email infra for individuals and organization to generate revenue. And on the sidelines, a new startup product being developed by a group of folks which cannot be discussed publicly.

At Altisource, I managed the complete Development, QA, DevOps and DOC teams for the Real Foundation group in Bangalore. The team of 50+ folks was spread across various countries and regions and reported into the CTO organization. I was also an integral part of the executive team that drove road-map, planned resources, timelines and budgets.

Real Foundation is a horizontal group that develops cloud based SaaS services for various financial institutions and internal Altisource BU’s. The idea is to develop the various common platform services like Single sign-on, Object & File Storage, Elastic Search, Reports & UI components and host them as a SaaS service on a private cloud.

Cisco VPN Agent
The project was to port the Cisco VPN agent onto mobile phone platforms. The idea was to get corporate network access on mobile devices so that employees can be mobile and yet get all their work done on the move. I had a team of six folks who were working on the project. This project involved a lot of coordination and working with partner mobile OS developers like Nokia to get the infrastructure in place before the port can be done.


Cisco Security Agent - Anti Virus Feature
This project added the Anti Virus feature to the CSA product using the open source AV libraries called ClamAV. ClamAV libraries were used to develop a framework so that the customer sees a seamless integration of AV into CSA. This involved a range of issues from analyzing the competitor products, developing a prototype, designing the infrastructure, developing the components and working with performance issues.


Management Console port to Linux
The CSA Management Console is a full fledged web based management application that allows the administrator to manage millions of Cisco security agents on the network from a single point. This project was to port the Management Console to Linux and involved writing all the base libraries and wrappers in Linux in such a way so that they were completely transparent to the upper layers, the UI and Database code.

I worked on a project to port the entire Internet App server consisting of 40+ components to the Itanium (64 bit Intel Processor). The job involved two parts; the first part is picking up the Windows NT version of the component and changing the code to work on a 64bit platform. The second part is to make sure that all the thousands of regression tests written for NT work the same way on the Itanium box also. I was working initially as a individual contributor and then was promoted as a manager. Along with ramping up the team size to double the initial numbers, I had to be hands on and took up porting the Apache product to Itanium.

Tape Storage File System
The project was to develop a virtual storage appliance that would sit on the fabric and simulate the behavior of a tape robot. The backup application gets to pump in all the data at amazing speeds thus shortening the backup window to a few hours. The VSA box then migrates the data from the RAID disks to a tape robot in the background as and when the network traffic comes down. For this project, I independently worked on the Storage file system. This module would suck in all the tape data and lay them out in the disk in a independent file system. The challenge was to analyze and segregate the data, markers and the padded data and give it back to the VSA box in the same format on a restore.

Disaster Recovery for Windows
Disaster recovery on Windows means that a user can bring up a crashed Windows server by booting it with a specially created CD-Rom. On the installed machines, a boot level driver is used to compile the minimum set of files necessary for the OS to start up. The restore wizard is then bundled with these files and the package is converted into a bootable ISO image that can be burnt into a CD. On boot-up via the CD, the restore wizard brings up the mini OS and TCP/IP, so that Legato’s NetWorker could take over from that point on for a complete recovery.

Storage, Backup & Restore
My primary job was to add new features and functionality to NetWorker, a heterogeneous backup & restore application with capabilities to backup machines over generic TCP/IP networks on all flavors of Unix, Windows and Netware. Cross-platform code was used to ensure that the product runs on all platforms. My primary work was on Backup and Restore, Disaster Recovery, Compression and Network Optimization.
