Grant McDonnal
Hi my name’s Grant. I am a driven and enthusiastic software engineering professional. I am certified as a Solutions Architect and SysOps Admin Associate. I studied Computer Science and Information Systems at Community College in Portland Oregon. I completed courses in C,C++,Java, SQL and data structures, algorithms and more. After my associates I started to build full-stack web apps. First using Angular and then React. I also got really into MongoDB and NOSql. And various ways to build and deploy apps. So I started working with AWS. This made the process alot less frustrating and much more user friendly. So I have a variety of skills in both web development and how to utilize the cloud to build and deploy code. I have used all of the core services on AWS. I am also skilled with github and version control. I'd like to continue developing my skills and challenge myself in a role as a DevOps engineer.
This website is running on AWS. I used a DynamoDB database to store the view count within a table. A lambda function called thru an API gateway end point everytime someone visits the page to increment the count. The site is behind a cloudfront distribution to cache content at endpoints. The website code is stored in an S3 bucket. I am also using github actions to create a ci/cd pipeline to automate building and redeploying the code to my S3 bucket when changes are commited to github.
