Chief Information Officer
Illuminys established a strategy for the Army's Data Center Consolidation program (more than 1,000 server rooms/data centers with ~17,000 uniquely configured servers) that would allow the Army to reduce its data center footprint while increasing efficiencies and its cybersecurity posture.
the team that developed a Data Center Self-Closure Guide containing the processes and procedures for application owners to effectively close their data center with minimal risk to mission.
He developed a phased approach to analyze the enterprise portfolio, identify the critical capability required and methods to eliminate the excess inventory.

Enterprise Architecture Support
Illuminys provided enterprise architectural guidance to support the Army’s Enterprise Data Centers and the Common Operating Environment initiatives. He developed the Enterprise Data Center Technical and Operational Assessment Field books that were used by the Army to select the best enterprise data centers. Illuminys established the Army Enterprise Data Center Working Group to bring the global communities together.Feasibility Study: Platform‐as‐a‐Service (PaaS) Technology Stacks
As cloud computing began to mature, the line between Infrastructure‐as‐a‐service and Platform‐as‐a‐service (PaaS) had not been established. Using the methods developed in the prior study, PaaS products were identified that aligned with the Common Operating Environment. He oversaw and provided engineering guidance to the study team to conduct the analysis and deployment of bleeding edge software to demonstrate how applications written in similar languages (i.e.– Java, C#, PHP) could elastically scale across servers.Feasibility Study: Sharing LandWarNet Hardware Resources Across the Enterprise
Illuminys realized that a new generation of Grid Computing technology was allowing compute resources to be shared across multiple physical data centers. He developed the processes to research, identify, deploy, test, and evaluate COTS products that could be deployed in Army Enterprise Data Centers. During the study, this next generation of compute became termed “Cloud Computing.” The technologies studied became known as Infrastructure‐as‐a‐Service, Cloud Storage, and Data Center Infrastructure Management.
