Introduction

Mon, 02 Jan 2017 13:25:43 -0500

Welcome to cgbaker.net, the personal webpage for Chris(topher Grover) Baker. It’s part blog and part project warehouse, my own little non-peer-reviewed piece of the internet.

This replaces my previous academic webpage. This is partially out of necessity, as the former site is no longer accessible to me because it was hosted at the Computer Science and Mathematics Division at Oak Ridge National Laboraties, where I previously worked. But it also serves to curate a broader set of interests than did the former. In addition to my (very gradual) ongoing research in linear algebra and Riemannian optimization, my intention is to write about cloud computing, dev-ops, programming, homebrewing, and whatever DIY I get around to writing up. So feel free to check out the projects link in the menu, the blog post categories listing, or my bio.

Site Architecture Update

After experimenting with some other sites, I’ve shifted the hosting for my website from AWS S3 to Cloudflare Pages.

New site architectural overview

As I promised in the intro, here’s a breakdown of the software and processes used to construct and delivery the site:

Hugo: flexible static site generation from markdown
Gitlab: version control for site source, continuous delivery system
Amazon Web Services (AWS): static content hosting, load balancing, content distribution, certificate management
