About
I am a web developer and technical consultant from Kolkata, India. I build platforms for high-traffic websites using tools like Nginx, Memcached, Xcache, etc. I am also profficient at Linux server administration and sysadmin jobs.
I specialise in tweaking and maintaining phpBB forums. I have worked on dozens of phpBB forums, ranging from a few posts to over two million posts. I have done every thing from installing forums, modifications to decreasing server load by optimising the software stack and PHP code. I also provide hosting for some of my clients' phpBB communities.
I have also written a couple of phpBB modifications.
Some of the technologies I have worked with (not exhaustive):
- PHP
- MySQL
- Nginx
- Apache
- Bash
- HTML/CSS
- Javascript
- Perl
Some of the web applications I have worked with (again, not exhaustive):
- phpBB
- Wordpress
- Drupal
Take a look at the services I provide or what my clients think of me. Here's a copy of my resume.
I passed my class X and class XII from Vivekananda Mission School, Kolkata. I'm currently pursuing B. Tech in Information Technology from West Bengal University of Technology (to be completed in 2013).
Here is a list of websites I have:
- Nginx Library - A collection of articles pertaining to configuring Nginx, a high-performance, asynchronous web server. Originally, intended to document my configuration and settings, this has now become a valuable resource for users looking to use Nginx.
- IP Obfuscator - A tiny project concerned with changing IPs into their different forms, complete with a JSON API, whipped up in an evening.
- Animorphs Fan Forum - A phpBB discussion community for the readers of the young adult book series, Animorphs.
- Tech Titibits - A technology blog started way back in 2008. Unfortunately, it is only sporadically updated.
