Current projects

I am currently working in a project called KubeMaya which is a platform to prepare edge devices using ARM to run AI programs. This plataform using K3s (A lightweight Kubernetes) running in a Air-gapped environment. The idea is to use KubeMaya to run applications that we are developing in USAC University in Guatemala to run AI programs that helps in local archeologists in their research related to archeology.
