Python is my language of choice for managing infrastructure, clouds, processing, data science, tools, virtualization, automation, websites, and core platforms. Below is my usual stack for building a new product or startup:

------
Django
------

I am a fan of most ``microservice architectures`` where a lightweight web application only uses ORM for housing web sessions. I am not a fan of app servers that spiral into bloatware, which means I gutted the ORM internals of Django so it acts a passthrough to my Tastypie REST services. I consider my Django servers (and most application servers) nothing more than a deployment tool for sending and receiving HTML + Javascript.

Here is my Django shell for starting a new product site running on Docker:

--------
Tastypie
--------

I use Tastypie Django webservers for injecting asynchronous jobs in to my Redis clusters. This architecture allows my products to have websites ``decoupled`` from business logic that is implemented in my proprietary python job processing engines.

If you are curious, here's more on Tastypie: https://django-tastypie.readthedocs.io/en/latest/

----------------------
SQLAlchemy and Alembic
----------------------

I run multiple RDS Amazon Web Service instances using MySQL and managed through SQLAlchemy_ and Alembic_. The ability to skin and ``prototype database schemas`` at high speed is why I created the prototyper repository: https://github.com/jay-johnson/docker-schema-prototyping-with-mysql

----
Boto
----

When I need anything on Amazon Web Services I will build it using AWS Boto_. I have built, managed, and launched ``multiple VPCs`` for my startups. Boto is fantastic if you do not want to manage your AWS cloud from a browser.

Open Source Projects

I have created or contributed to the following open source projects:

-----------------
Message Simulator
-----------------

I have spent years validating and assessing ``highly available`` production AMQP clusters. I built the `Message Simulator`_ as a generalized tool for ensuring any RabbitMQ cluster is ready by simulating message traffic.
