Alexandru G.
Last position:
Principal Cloud DevOps Architect at BP
In my role as Senior Cloud DevOps Architect for BP, an oil and gas company, I had the mission to migrate the Electric Vehicle Charging platform of the EV Division from on-premises and Azure to AWS cloud, resulting in a hybrid multi-cloud, multi-tenant SaaS solution.
Deployment with Kubernetes for the application layer meant provisioning Kubernetes clusters managed by EKS and AKS, with a focus on integrating them into a multi-tenant environment. This integration was achieved by using Kubernetes namespaces and access controls to ensure data isolation and privacy enforcement.
In the database layer, we chose an RDS instance with PostgreSQL to support the backend infrastructure of our applications. Tenants shared the same RDS instance, but each had a dedicated schema.
To ingest near real-time data from physical charge points (CPOs), as IoT devices, via the OCPI protocol, we ran into significant delays with batch processing. As a result, we built a real-time streaming data pipeline using Apache Kafka, while prioritizing an event-driven architecture.
Led collaboration across multiple internal teams, external vendors, cloud providers, and on-site partners to integrate over five systems into a unified solution.
Achievements:
- Successfully designed and implemented hybrid multi-cloud solutions, integrating multiple cloud platforms (AWS, Azure) with on-premises infrastructure, using Site-to-Site VPNs, Firewalls, and Load Balancing.
- Led the migration of on-premises infrastructure to multi-cloud, multi-tenant infrastructure, resulting in 30% faster processing times.
- Migrated workloads from VMware and Hyper-V environments to cloud-based VMs, leveraging cloud-native services to optimize performance, cost efficiency, and scalability.
- Designed a multi-tenant Kubernetes platform leveraging the Kubernetes ecosystem, using Karpenter for dynamic EC2 node provisioning, KEDA for event-driven pod autoscaling (e.g., Kafka message lag), and Rancher for centralized monitoring of multiple clusters (EKS, AKS, or on-prem K8s), replacing Microsoft-centric Azure Arc management service.
- Designed and implemented Python-based FastAPI microservices as part of the EV core-backend on AWS EKS application layer, powering data ingestion and customer analytics pipelines.
- Developed asynchronous, event-driven APIs (Python-FastAPI) for real-time integration with CPOs, supporting OCPI 2.3 and OICP protocols.
- Designed and implemented a secure, production-grade Azure Databricks platform using Terraform, ensuring scalability and cost efficiency.
- Migrated on-premises ERP to a hybrid Dynamics 365 architecture with ERP hosted locally and CRM running in Azure, integrated via Azure Arc.
- Automated CI/CD pipelines for Databricks notebooks and jobs using GitHub Actions & Databricks CLI, reducing deployment time. Reduced infrastructure provisioning time by 70% by automating cloud resource deployment with GitOps.
- Ensured compliance with internal audit and data governance standards (GDPR) through OAuth2/OIDC-based authentication and fine-grained role-based access controls.
- Developed a Zero Trust security model, enforcing least-privilege access and microsegmentation, enhancing security posture and compliance with GDPR and NIST.
- Built interactive analytics dashboards in Amazon QuickSight, integrating data from S3 and Redshift to deliver real-time business insights and visualizations with embedded access for multi-tenant users.
- Led cloud security assessments and full-lifecycle cybersecurity integration during M&A, covering AWS, Azure, IAM (Entra ID), and data protection, while aligning security posture with NIST, ISO 27001, and GDPR across hybrid and cloud-native environments.
- Reduced cloud costs by 64% for a client's dev environment by implementing automated start/stop schedules for EC2 and RDS instances via AWS CDK with EventBridge Scheduler or AWS Systems Manager.
Tech stack:
- Infrastructure as Code: Terraform, AWS CDK, Ansible.
- Containers: Kubernetes on EKS, AKS, Docker.
- Streaming Data Processing: Kafka to Confluent Cloud, after AWS MSK.
- Frontend: TypeScript, React, NextJS, Hooks, Styled Components.
- Backend: Python with FastAPI, also Node.js with NestJS.
- Database: Aurora on PostgreSQL with TypeORM, RDS on SQL Server, Azure Databricks full setup and administration, ETL Pipelines.

- ERP Systems: Odoo, Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central on Azure, integrated with Azure Arc.
- Networking: Site-to-Site VPNs, AWS Direct Connect, Azure ExpressRoute, Firewalls (AWS Network Firewall, Azure Firewall).
- Security: IAM, NIST Framework, Zero Trust Security, AWS WAF, AWS Shield, GuardDuty.

About the technology
Virtualisation with Hyper-V
Hyper-V is Microsoft’s native hypervisor for creating and running virtual machines on Windows Server and Windows. It provides isolation between workloads while sharing physical compute, memory, storage and network resources. Companies use it for server consolidation, private cloud environments, test systems, disaster recovery and dependable application hosting.
Core infrastructure
Hyper-V environments combine hosts, virtual switches, virtual disks and management policies. Strong designs account for CPU and memory allocation, storage performance, network segmentation, secure boot and high availability. Windows Server Failover Clustering and System Center Virtual Machine Manager often support larger or more structured estates.
- Plan host and cluster architecture
- Configure virtual networking and storage
- Set up live migration and failover
- Document recovery and operating procedures
Projects and migrations
Specialists work on new virtualisation platforms as well as complex migrations from physical servers or other hypervisors. Typical deliverables include capacity plans, migration runbooks, production-ready clusters, backup integration and validated recovery procedures. They can also modernise legacy workloads without disrupting business operations.
- Migrate workloads from VMware or physical servers
- Build development and staging environments
- Consolidate Windows Server estates
- Prepare disaster recovery environments
Tools around Hyper-V
Hyper-V expertise extends beyond the hypervisor itself. Relevant skills include Windows Server, Active Directory, PowerShell, Failover Clustering, Storage Spaces Direct, Azure integration and backup platforms. Professionals may also work with monitoring, configuration management, infrastructure as code and security controls for privileged access and virtual machine protection.
When companies need specialists
Freelance expertise is useful during data-centre changes, cloud transitions, infrastructure audits and urgent capacity or reliability work. It can also fill a gap when an internal team knows Windows Server but lacks deep experience with clustered virtualisation. In Munich, remote delivery often works well for planning, configuration and documentation, while on-site work can help with physical hosts, storage and network changes.
What strong professionals deliver
Experienced Hyper-V professionals explain trade-offs clearly and connect technical choices to availability, security and operating effort. They test failover instead of treating it as a checkbox, measure workload behaviour before migration and leave usable documentation behind. The best specialists can collaborate with infrastructure, security and application teams in German or English and support a controlled handover.
Frequently asked questions
Key details about Hyper-V, drawn from the questions we get asked most.
Hyper-V is used to run multiple isolated virtual machines on shared Windows-based infrastructure. Companies use it for server consolidation, application hosting, development environments, disaster recovery and private cloud workloads.
Hyper-V fits naturally into Microsoft environments built around Windows Server, Active Directory, PowerShell and Azure. VMware vSphere may offer a broader dedicated virtualisation ecosystem, so the right choice depends on existing skills, management tools, licensing, workload requirements and migration plans.
A strong Hyper-V specialist usually understands Windows Server, PowerShell, Active Directory, DNS, networking, storage and backup design. Experience with Failover Clustering, System Center, Azure and security hardening is valuable for larger or business-critical environments.
A capable Hyper-V freelancer should have delivered environments similar to the planned project, such as clustered hosts, workload migrations or recovery platforms. Ask for concrete evidence of capacity planning, failure testing, rollback preparation and documentation rather than relying only on certification claims.
Much of Hyper-V planning, configuration, troubleshooting and documentation can be handled remotely with secure access and good change controls. On-site presence may still be useful for installing physical hosts, connecting storage or coordinating data-centre changes in Munich.
Quality Hyper-V work is visible in clear architecture decisions, tested failover, predictable performance and complete operational documentation. A specialist should explain recovery objectives, monitor resource contention and show how changes can be reversed safely.
Hyper-V supports many Linux distributions alongside Windows workloads. A specialist should verify supported guest versions, integration services, virtual hardware settings, storage behaviour, backup compatibility and the operational needs of each Linux application.
Before starting with Hyper-V, freelancers should clarify the host estate, guest workloads, network and storage design, backup approach, access model and change process. They should also establish whether the work covers a new build, migration, incident response or long-term operational support.
The average hourly rate of freelancers in Munich, Germany who have used Hyper-V in their recent projects is 110 €, which corresponds to a daily rate of about 882 € based on an 8-hour working day.
