Today really reached a fever pitch in terms of being busy. Today was the last day to work on our code and the India team and I pulled in all of our collective effort to get thing thing off the ground and running. I was the DevOps guy, not to my surprise, and I was the one responsible for deploying the API on a server, setting up the DB, figuring out connectivity, and all that stuff. I did a lot of stuff, honestly. I had to work with AI agents, too, so that was a pretty cool new piece of tech that I tried to fangle and get to work.

I honestly felt like I did a lot. I did the backend connection to the AI, I configured the AI itself, I deployed and hosted the code, I populated the DB and set it up, and I did A LOT of troubleshooting. Thankfully, I had a lot of help, which was very much appreciated. But it was so tiring because I was on call with the India team throughout the afternoon and late evening, too. I got off work at 11 p.m., which is honestly surprising! We took small breaks in-between, but I was still munching on food and getting stuff done.

Thankfully, I ended the day on a pretty good note. I got a lot of stuff done and it was nice to just be a core part of any team I work with.
