During his 10 years of backend development, his interest has gravitated towards DevSecOps and automation. He enjoys teaching others and is often found at local meetups presenting various technologies, patterns, and software examples. He is thrilled to be using Orleans and considers it one of those wonderful and valuable frameworks that should be in the tool kit of every architect and backend developer. Also, he is pleased to have graduated from monolithic and microservice systems to build cloud-native solutions, including actor model backends. He has an associate's degree in Graphic Design, bachelor's degree in Computer Information Systems, and is currently attending Harvard Extension pursuing his master's degree in Information Management Systems.\u003cbr\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eThomas Nelson\u003c\/b\u003e, a Lead Cloud Architect and a Microsoft Certified Azure Solutions Architect Expert, has worked in several technical fields spanning from the graphic design of websites to development and architecture.
