StyleBooks: A declarative configuration language for Citrix ADC

StyleBooks is a declarative language that allow users to consume NetScaler (now, called Citrix ADC) services in a variety of data center configurations and cloud architectures, providing both configuration simplification and smart operational visibility. It captures useful NetScaler configuration and includes operational aspects (health, counters, logs). New StyleBooks can be created by cloning and modifying existing ones, or by composing existing StyleBooks into new ones, thus, allowing for modular and incremental design. In this project, I was responsible for the following: (i) compiler for StyleBooks that generates an equivalent Python package, (ii) design of the runtime engine that instantiates a compiled StyleBook to create an actual configuration, (iii) design of config audit and config diffs for computing the differences when an existing configuration is updated, (iv) design of the REST APIs.
