About the author

John Gilbert is a CTO with over 25 years of experience of architecting and delivering distributed, event-driven systems. His cloud journey started more than five years ago and has spanned all the levels of cloud maturity—through lift and shift, software-defined infrastructure, microservices, and continuous deployment. He is the author of Cloud Native Development Patterns and Best Practices. He finds delivering cloud-native solutions to be by far the most fun and satisfying, as they force us to rewire how we reason about systems and enable us to accomplish far more with much less effort.
