Welcome to the author page of Michael!

I am constantly writing new posts and interesting articles on topics such as cloud infrastructure, infrastructure as code, cost and architecture traps. The tech blog addresses the needs and interests of developers and solution architects in digitalization projects.

Thank you for your interest!
