Server Automation Suite

I build self-healing infrastructure. Using Python and Bash, I automate the critical lifecycle of client VPS instances—from provisioning to disaster recovery.

Python 3.11 Bash Cron
Automation Cycle
On Demand
Zero-Touch Provisioning

Bash scripts that bootstrap a fresh VPS: configuring users, SSH hardening, and installing dependencies (Nginx/PHP) in < 60s.

Daily @ 03:00 UTC
Auto-Healing Backups

Python scripts utilizing boto3 to compress databases and sync encrypted archives to off-site S3 storage buckets.

Weekly @ Sunday
Log Rotation & Cleanup

Automated maintenance to compress old access logs, prune temp files, and ensure 99.9% disk availability.

Script Architecture

02 import os
03 from datetime import datetime

06 def upload_backup(file_name):
07     s3 = boto3.client('s3')
08     try:
09         response = s3.upload_file(
10             file_name, 'client-backups-vps1', file_name
11         )
12         print(f"[SUCCESS] {file_name} pushed to S3 Cloud.")
13     except Exception as e:
14         log_error(e) # Trigger SMS alert via Twilio API
Why Custom Scripts?

While tools like Ansible are great, custom Python/Bash scripts offer lower overhead for lightweight VPS instances. My scripts include built-in error handling and integrate directly with client notification systems (Slack/SMS) for instant alerts.
