I have a thorough understanding of cloud architecture and cloud technologies and capabilities, that are used to design, develop, and manage robust, secure, scalable, highly available, and dynamic solutions to enable organizations to drive the desired business outcomes. I also have extensive technical knowledge of computing hardware, server/client operating systems, ETL processes, Database systems, and BI systems, in implementing big data technologies like Hadoop, Hive, Impala, Sqoop, Flume, HUE, Pig, HDFS, CM, and various open source and commercial Portal solutions. I am a specialist in all Microsoft .NET development software and technologies. This has positioned me well in advising clients about their data engineering, data architecture, and big data solutions technology architecture and functionality.
