About the Reviewer

Alex Kapranoff studied software engineering in one of the smaller Russian cities and then worked in the internet industry for about 20 years in roles ranging from software developer to CTO to technical manager. Having written production code in many programming languages, he still considers Perl his one true love. Perl 6 is a huge step forward for the language, for the ecosystem, and, maybe even for programming language theory.

Agava, Inline Technologies, Rambler.ru, and Yandex are companies that provided Alex with the opportunities to be his best and write impactful code in Perl on a day-to-day basis throughout his career.

Alex has worked on a number of books about the performance-oriented web server software, Nginx, and published his own take on Nginx Troubleshooting with Packt Publishing.
