About

Hi!

My name is Loek, I am a Cloud Architect at Xpirit (Netherlands) and a Microsoft Azure MVP, helping companies modernize their IT all the way; Cloud strategy, DevOps practices, and Continuous Delivery. I spend most of my days helping teams by providing hands-on assistance, solving problems and delivering technical training.
A couple of times per year, I like to speak at international conferences or to provide workshops.
By being a consultant, international speaker, trainer, active contributor to open-source projects, and forum participant, I love to share knowledge with the community.

Some of my recent public speaking & workshop engagements:

• NDC Oslo
• ESPC Prague
• Microsoft ALM and DevOps meetup Stockholm
• Dutch Azure Meetup Amsterdam
• DevConf Krakow
• Container Days Hamburg
• DevDays Europe Vilnius
• DevOps Pro Moscow
• .Net Developer Days Warsaw

Founder of the project ServiceFabric.ServiceBus, which is a library that enables your services to send and receive Azure Service Bus messages by taking away some of the complexity.

Sponsorship

Using your sponsorship funding, I can dedicate time to these projects during my workday. This enables me to modernize the packages, and implement new features.

Specifically, to add support for recent changes in reliable collections in the ServiceFabric.Mocks project.
