Internship 2027: R&D of Amazon Web Services Monitoring Integration for SIOP/DX NetOps

What you will do

The goal of this internship assignment is to investigate how a Amazon Web Services (AWS) environment can be discovered, monitored and represented within the SIOP/DX NetOps architecture. The intern will focus on AWS inventory and resources discovery, performance and health monitoring, topology and relationships, network and security information and other AWS-specific operational data. Based on this research, the intern will develop a proof-of-concept (POC) that demonstrates how this information can be collected, normalized and made available for operation use within SIOP/DX NetOps.

The solution must align with Simac’s evolving SIOP/Broadcom DX NetOps architecture. The assignment will investigate a modern and reusable integration approach based on AWS API’s, telemetry sources and data-ingestion pipelines. Kafka can be evaluated as a data distribution or streaming layer, ClickHouse as a scalable analytics and storage platform for selected historical, performance and operational data and SIOP and/or Grafana for visualization and operational use. An important objective is to determine whether the resulting AWS integration pattern can also serve as a reusable architectural model for integrating other technologies into SIOP in the future.
