In handling production incidents, it's crucial to have a systematic approach. I first prioritize incidents based on severity and impact. Then, I engage in active monitoring and troubleshooting using appropriate tools, document the incident accurately, and follow ITIL guidelines. After resolving the issue, I conduct a root cause analysis to prevent future occurrences.

Certainly! I have solid experience with both Java and .NET applications, having developed and supported several projects in diverse environments. I am comfortable with application deployment, debugging, and optimizations. Engaging with cross-functional teams has allowed me to address performance issues effectively.

My strategy for cloud service management in Azure involves proactive monitoring and resource optimization. I use Azure's monitoring tools to track performance metrics, ensure security compliance, and optimize resource usage for cost-effectiveness. Regular health checks help in maintaining application availability.

Ensuring ITIL process compliance involves understanding and adhering to the framework's guidelines actively. I make sure to document all incidents and changes accurately and participate in regular process reviews to identify improvement opportunities, particularly focusing on Incident Management and Problem Management.
