During my involvement in the Heartbeat Information Router Improvement Project for the E.ON Group, I played a central role in enhancing the Heartbeat Information Router (HIR), an application hosted in the Azure Cloud. My responsibilities centered around Azure architecture and cloud engineering, areas where my expertise was directly applied. I began with an analysis of HIR's existing architecture, identifying areas for improvement in alignment with various customer systems. I then crafted a detailed implementation plan for the necessary updates, utilizing the latest in C# 11 and .NET 6 engineering. The most significant part of my role included coordinating the connection of new business areas and applications to HIR within the Azure environment. The focus was on compatibility, performance, and the overall benefit to the business, ensuring a seamless integration with existing structures. My consultation extended to the optimization of internal processes within the Azure Cloud, including the development and fine-tuning of cloud architecture. My enterprise consulting within E.ON's Microsoft Azure space helped in transforming and aligning IT solutions to meet specific business requirements, laying the foundation for a more agile and responsive technology framework. The project showcased my ability to leverage cloud technologies to create efficient and scalable solutions, all tailored to the company's unique needs and objectives.
