Hello, I'm

Miles Edwards

Cloud Solutions Engineer at Hubit

I build cloud platforms, data pipelines and full-stack web apps, and I like making complicated systems feel simple.

About

Nice to meet you

I'm a computer science graduate who loves the whole stack. I've migrated enterprise ERP systems to the cloud, modernised CI/CD for a Microsoft partner, built data pipelines and IoT dashboards, and written the tools that make that work faster. I even run my own server, and this site lives on it.

What I work on

  1. Cloud & infrastructure

    AWS and Google Cloud, containerised deployments, CI/CD pipelines and self-hosted Linux services.

  2. Data & migration

    ERP cloud migrations to Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central, and ETL pipelines that move data fast without losing any of it.

  3. Full-stack web

    Web apps, B2B portals and IoT data interfaces, from the database to the last pixel.

  4. Automation & tooling

    AI-augmented engineering tools and utilities that fix at scale what would take weeks by hand.

Things I've built

  1. Spare timeJan 2026 – Now

    Self-hosted deployment platform

    The home server this site runs on. I push to GitHub, and it builds, checks and ships itself.

    • Ubuntu
    • Docker Compose
    • Caddy
    • Tailscale
    • Bash
    • GitHub webhooks
    More about it Less
    • A salvaged Dell OptiPlex from a university disposal queue, rebuilt as an Ubuntu server for personal and client projects.
    • Every app deploys on push: a signed GitHub webhook builds it with Docker Compose, waits until it's healthy, and rolls back if it isn't.
    • Caddy serves each app on its own subdomain with automatic HTTPS, and SSH is only reachable over a Tailscale mesh VPN.
    • Nightly backups of every app's settings and data, with a one-command restore.

    NAV2BC data pipeline

    A web-based migration tool that moves enterprise data from on-premises Microsoft Dynamics NAV to Dynamics 365 Business Central in the cloud.

    • Python
    • Flask
    • SQLAlchemy
    • SQL Server
    • OData
    • OAuth 2.0
    More about it Less
    • Streams data in chunks with Python generators and OData batch requests, keeping memory flat and API throughput high.
    • Runs long migrations as multi-threaded background jobs, so the interface stays responsive.
    • Signs in to Microsoft with the OAuth 2.0 device flow, and validates prerequisites and transformations before anything moves.
    • Deployed to the client's server, moving their data into systems built for analysis and forecasting.
