Inspired by the Human Body System, Kurniagusta Dwinto tries to improve PAYFAZZ’s autoscale system
Kurniagusta Dwinto (known as Winto) believes that the most sophisticated “technology” in the world is the Human Body System. It’s an interesting system to “duplicate” into a computer system, a system that can do its prevention when the “virus” comes, and a system that can heal itself.
Winto can possibly implement this miraculous Human Body System in computer technology. In engineering, this healing system is known as Safety Engineering.
What is Safety Engineering?
Safety engineering is an applied science strongly related to Systems Engineering. Safety engineering aims to insure that a life-critical system behaves as needed, even when something doesn’t work the way it supposed to. Safety Engineering is often reactionary to adverse events, also described as “incidents,” as reflected in accident statistics.
For Winto the true success of his work is when he and his team is no longer needed. As a System Reliability Engineer (SRE) Winto and his team is trying to develop an auto-scale system. This system can automatically scale quickly up and down in response to load in order to save money, without violating service level agreements as a diagnostic and predictive tool. As a result this would allow dynamic scaling, automatic reaction to performance, correctness problems, and generally automatic management of many aspects of these systems.
Every work that Winto does is from the heart. He is not only dedicated to job, but he is also responsible. He remembers waking up 3 in the morning when the server was down to make sure everything was in control and under maintenance. He always encourages his team have the #ProCustomer mindset like him, because when they they share the same mindset it will be easier to achieve their goal together.
Even with the technology advancement today, Winto thinks his plan will take time. Right now he’s focusing on making his team stronger, so they can solve challenging problems and become more innovative. Winto has faith that him and his team will achieve this goal.
