Summary

EKS Cluster Management — the container/orchestration layer. Manage Kubernetes (EKS) clusters end-to-end and profile containerized workloads: right-size pod resource requests/limits, tune VPA and node pools, and hunt memory waste at the cgroup/runtime level.
EMR Cluster Operations & Spark Tuning — the infrastructure/config layer for big-data. Right-size EMR clusters and instance families (e.g., memory-optimized R-type → compute-optimized C-type), and tune Spark/YARN settings at the cluster level.
Memory Optimization (Spark) — the application/code layer for big-data. Deep-dive and refactor the actual PySpark / Spark / Hive / Pig job code — rewriting inefficient transformations, fixing partition skew, tuning caching and shuffles.
JDK Migration & Heap Right-Sizing — the language-runtime layer. Migrate Java services across JDK versions (17→21, 21→25), resolve migration blockers, and right-size JVM heaps / exploit new algorithms (Zgenerational, etc.).
Rustification & Service Migration — the rewrite layer. Rebuild memory-bound Java services in Rust to eliminate JVM overhead entirely (targeting ~50%+ memory reduction), proving functional equivalence via oracle/differential testing and doing a safe canary cutover.
