Systems & Architecture Blueprints

SAML Auth & SSO Gateway

Replaced a legacy identity solution with an industry-standard SAML authentication and authorization framework.

C# Active Directory Imprivata WIF (Windows Identity Foundation)

Challenge

Legacy system required repeating logins across multiple subsystems, slowing down workflow security audits.

Solution

Created middleware, custom service authorization policies, and WCF message inspectors to validate SAML tokens. Added automatic token renewal.

Client STS (WIF) ActiveDir WCF App SSO Gateway Token Verification Flow

Cloud Auditing Pipeline

Modernized on-premises transactional logging by designing a microservice-friendly audit pipeline on Microsoft Azure.

Azure Event Hubs MSMQ Background Service JSON APIs

Challenge

On-premises SQL tables became bottlenecks under high concurrent write operations for transaction audits.

Solution

Created a common Auditing API that outputs JSON payloads directly into Azure Event Hub. A lightweight background service processes Event Hub streams asynchronously, writing back to data vaults.

API Event Hub Worker Storage Asynchronous Stream Processing via Azure Event Hubs

DB Check-in Policy (CI)

Built a automated database verification agent integrated within the GitHub Actions PR review cycles.

GitHub Actions GitHub PR API C# Runner SQL Linting

Challenge

Manual DB reviews for schema changes were slow, leading to build breaks across 40+ engineering groups.

Solution

Created a custom C# console utility running inside GitHub Actions workflows. It parses pull request files, runs syntactical SQL sanity validations, and logs analysis directly onto the PR via API.

Push GH Action C# Validator SQL OK PR Comment CI Schema Check Validation Architecture

VMware Session Roaming

Implemented real-time workspace profile synchronization for healthcare providers transitioning across dynamic physical terminal devices.

VMware APIs Session Broadcasting C# Middleware

Challenge

Physicians wasting time re-authenticating and loading user sessions while moving between patient rooms.

Solution

Integrated VMware broker events directly with desktop clients. Real-time profiles sync sessions seamlessly upon tag-in/tag-out, bypassing application restarts.

Card Tap VMware API Terminal 1 Terminal 2 Active Session Redirection Flow

Load Balancer Health Probe

Designed zero-downtime traffic management systems running across distributed cloud and on-premises hosting services.

Azure Load Balancer API Probes Flow Control High Availability

Challenge

Maintenance releases triggered random client failure reports due to slow load balancer routing convergence.

Solution

Created active probe checkers inside local apps. When CI/CD releases are staged, custom APIs gracefully instruct the Load Balancer to re-route requests, ensuring zero downtime.
