About

Hi, I’m Abdullah Bello.

An aspiring Cloud & Cybersecurity Engineer

Welcome to my corner of the internet!
I’m currently diving deep into the ALX AWS Cloud Fellowship, gaining hands-on experience in designing secure, scalable, and cost-effective cloud solutions. With a background in Computer Science, I’m passionate about building resilient architectures and integrating security from day one.

This blog is my digital brain dump: lessons learned, architectural patterns, project breakdowns, and the occasional “why won’t this work?” moment, shared openly as I grow.

What I Do

  • AWS Cloud Architecture – Designing secure, scalable cloud infrastructures
  • Cloud Security – Identity & Access Management, compliance, and secure-by-design solutions
  • Blogging in Public – Sharing wins, fixes, and deep technical dives

What You’ll Find Here

  • Project notes & walkthroughs
  • Practical guides from my AWS cloud journey
  • Cloud Security tips for real-world use cases
  • Fixes for things that broke (and what I learned)
  • Security insights from an engineer who thinks before he builds
  • CLI & Linux tips that make cloud life easier
  • Occasional reflections, rants, and honest thoughts

My Philosophy

  • Secure from day one.
  • Document everything.
  • And when it breaks? Fix it, blog it, move on.

Outside the Terminal

When I’m not building or securing systems, I’m probably playing chess or getting a few COD matches in.
