Hi, I am Abhishek! 👋 👋

I really enjoy working at the intersection of Databases, Go and Cloud Native ecosystem (Kubernetes etc.). I am a die hard fan of The Walking Dead and my favorite movie is Lost in Translation (what’s yours??)

Currently, a Principal Developer Advocate at Amazon Web Services (AWS), but over the course of my career I have worn multiple hats including engineering, consulting and product management. Before this, at Microsoft I was a Product Manager for Azure Cosmos DB and also had an amazing time as a Developer Advocate in the Developer Relations team, where I mostly worked with Apache Kafka, Redis and other data products on Azure.

I was also nominated as a Confluent Community Catalyst (twice!) for my contributions to the Apache Kafka community 🙂 love writing stuff (blogs, books, etc.) and work on open-source now and then.

Opinions, views are mine, not my employer’s
