About Shamsher Khan
Building and studying reliable Kubernetes, cloud, container-security, and DevOps systems through production experience, open-source implementations, and peer-reviewed research.
Kubernetes Reliability
Operational Memory
Container Security
Platform Engineering
AI-Assisted Operations
Professional Background
15+ years building, operating, and troubleshooting production systems.
Currently
managing eight Kubernetes clusters
supporting Fortune 500 environments at GlobalLogic, a Hitachi Group company.
I created OpsCart to examine Kubernetes as it behaves during real
failures—not only as documentation says it should behave. The
research, open-source tools, articles, and experiments published here
combine production experience, reproducible testing, and documented
evidence.
