George Svachulay

Enterprise Cloud Consultant

Most of my career was spent with virtualisation and containerisation technologies in cloud environments. I approach architectural and engineering decisions from an ‘operations-first’ mindset, making sure that the right tools are picked for the right issues, so that your cloud environment delivers you value, allows straightforward maintenance and does not burden your teams (after all, it is meant to help).

I am vocal about cost-saving opportunities and a strong advocate against tech-bandwagoning, as I believe, that IT is there to help simplify and streamline businesses and not the other way around.

I keep up-to-date with new technologies and follow their maturity closely, to determine an optimal entry point where risk is minimal, but business value is good. I am enthusiastic about security and privacy in all aspects of the business and try to implement solutions that deliver the highest protection against modern risks and vulnerabilities.
