AWS Cloud Solutions Architect ETX (Enterprise Technology Exchange) REMOTE

Required Skills:

ETX (Enterprise Technology Exchange) Dependency for LSF VPN Required ETX is a prerequisite for LSF (Load Sharing Facility) and requires a site-to-site VPN to be operational before it can function. Dependency Chain: VPN ETX LSF Resource Requirements: VPN gateway or AWS Site-to-Site VPN connections in each relevant region Sufficient bandwidth on the VPN for ETX communication overhead Network ACLs and security groups configured to permit ETX traffic flows ETX services configured over the VPN tunnel LSF then leverages ETX for job scheduling and resource management Professional Services Core Skillsets: Cloud Network Architecture Design and implementation of AWS Site-to-Site VPN VPC peering Transit Gateway routing tables and firewall/NACL rules Enterprise Integration / Middleware ETX installation configuration and integration over VPN tunnels; ensuring reliable message exchange between on-premises and cloud environments HPC / Batch Computing IBM Spectrum LSF deployment cluster configuration job scheduling policies and integration with ETX for workload orchestration Security & Compliance IAM policies encryption in transit (IPSec) network segmentation and audit logging across VPN and ETX layers Infrastructure Automation (IaC) CloudFormation / Terraform for repeatable VPN and networking provisioning across multi-region deployments EVS (Elastic VMware Service) EVS provides VMware Cloud Foundation on AWS enabling lift-and-shift of VMware-based workloads to AWS without re-platforming. Resource Requirements: EVS cluster provisioning in target AWS regions vCenter ESXi host and vSAN configuration within the EVS environment Network connectivity between EVS and native AWS services (VPC integration ENI attachments) VM migration tooling (HCX or equivalent) for workload mobility from on-premises VMware to EVS Licensing alignment for VMware components Professional Services Core Skillsets: VMware Administration / vSphere Engineering vCenter management ESXi host configuration vSAN storage policies VM lifecycle management and DRS/HA cluster tuning AWS EVS / VMware Cloud Specialization EVS cluster deployment SDDC configuration integration with AWS native services (S3 EBS VPC) and hybrid connectivity design Migration & Workload Mobility VMware HCX deployment and configuration bulk VM migration planning cutover orchestration and rollback procedures Cloud Network Architecture EVS networking (NSX or VPC-based) connectivity to native AWS VPCs DNS integration and cross-region traffic routing Security & Identity vCenter RBAC integration with AWS IAM NSX micro-segmentation and compliance controls for VMware workloads on AWS Infrastructure Automation (IaC) Automated provisioning of EVS environments using Terraform CloudFormation or VMware Aria Automation Professional Services Core Skillsets: NetApp / ONTAP Storage Engineering FSx for ONTAP provisioning volume and SVM management snapshot policies tiering policies ONTAP CLI/REST API operations and performance tuning AWS Storage Architecture FSx for ONTAP sizing and deployment throughput capacity planning integration with VPCs and cost optimization (capacity pool vs. SSD tier) Data Migration & Replication SnapMirror configuration for cross-region replication NetApp XCP or robocopy for bulk data migration cutover planning and data validation Cloud Network Architecture VPC subnet design security groups for NFS/SMB/iSCSI protocols cross-region VPC peering for replication traffic and DNS configuration for file system endpoints Linux / Windows Systems Engineering NFS mount configuration on Linux SMB share mapping on Windows multi-protocol access testing and client-side performance tuning Backup DR & Data Protection AWS Backup integration with FSx for ONTAP snapshot scheduling cross-region DR strategy and RTO/RPO validation Security & Compliance Encryption at rest (KMS) encryption in transit IAM policies for FSx access ONTAP export policies and data governance controls
