OpenPath

Open Path is a data integration platform that provides improved care coordination, prioritization of services, and in-depth analysis.

OpenPath is composed of two distinct but integrated applications. The Coordinated Access System (CAS) is the client-facing application which “brings together the organizations, housing resources, and services available to assist homeless people into a permanent home.” (greenriver.com). It is supported by the HMIS (Homeless Management Information System) Warehouse, which “collects, combines, and aggregates data from multiple sources for analysis.” (openpath.host/about)

I contributed most to the custom deployment tool supporting the platform, including but not limited to:

Tagging deployed Docker images (to ECS) as --latest
Improving generation and use of the pre-cache image to speed up image builds in GitHub Actions
Updating the AWS CLI usage to remove several manual checkpoints and cut down deployment time significantly
Precompiling the Ruby on Rails application assets ahead of time in the GitHub Actions pipeline
