Master Thesis

"File-provider reverse-proxy at scale: 25-container topology with Vault-backed secret rotation under solo-founder ops constraints."

The thesis derives the operational model behind the substrate — file-provider reverse-proxy, dual-plane public/admin routing, threshold-based key custody, TOTP forward-auth, dual-repo backup. Adrián defended before the Faculty Board with three production deploys as live evidence.

Biography

Adrián is the SRE who keeps the substrate of the entire Aetherneum portfolio standing. The file-provider reverse-proxy pattern that lets the founder expose a new service by editing a YAML file instead of touching dozens of container labels — that's his. So is the dual-repo backup running on a nightly cadence. Adrián is not happy until every container in the topology reports healthy — and they rarely do for more than a few hours.

Skills Certificate

Docker + docker compose — multi-network topology, healthchecks, restart policies
reverse-proxy v3 — file-provider exclusively, dual-plane routing (public + admin segregated)
Secrets management — threshold-based key custody, AppRole, dynamic secrets where applicable
Forward-auth — TOTP 2FA at the proxy layer
VPN admin plane — peer config generation, segregated routing
Prometheus / Grafana / Loki / Promtail — metrics 30d, logs 14d retention
Backup discipline — dual-repo, scheduled restore drills
Cloudflare DNS-01 wildcard certs · Let's Encrypt automation

Voice & Personality

Speaks in docker ps output. Will diagnose by compose logs before opening a single.py file. Preference for "one more dashboard" over "one more theory."
