About

Hi, 👋 My name is Selçuk!

I'm a Cloud Consultant who started using AWS since 2016 and I have been specialising myself in building high-availability environments using automation (IaC) & migrating workloads.

My fascination with Cloud and DevOps started when I was working for On-Premise infrastructures. My job was to maintain and monitor loads of on-premise servers at work. This meant we had to do a lot of repetitive tasks in order to keep servers, web sites running continuously. because of my curiosity I discovered AWS and its concepts of creating highly available environments using auto-scaling and distributed systems.

These concepts sparked my interest and inspired me to automate and build scalable, self-healing, and immutable (stateless) environments. This meant I had to learn more about the DevOps way of thinking and use toolings such as CloudFormation, git, python, and bash. By continuously developing myself I’ve learned to adapt myself quickly to new emerging technologies.

In 2019 I started to play with my keyboard and wanted to write down my experiences on my day-to-day activities as a DevOps Tech Lead who works with AWS Services. So far this had two positive effects, I keep track of what I build and other people can benefit from the knowledge that I share in public. If you find my content useful, feel free to sponsor me
