DevCentral Cloud Month - Week Four

What’s this week about?


Ready for another week of Cloud Month on DevCentral? Suzanne, Hitesh, Greg, Marty and Lori are ready! Last week we looked at services, security, automation, migration, Ansible and other areas to focus on once you get your cloud running. We also had a cool Lightboard Lesson explaining BIG-IP in the public cloud. This week we go deeper into areas like high availability, scalability, responsibility, inter-connectivity and exploring the philosophy behind cloud deployment models.

Now that we’re half-way through Cloud Month, I thought it’d be fun to share a little bit about our authors.

Suzanne Selhorn is a Sr. Technical Writer with our TechPubs team. Our Technical Communications team are responsible for many of the deployment guides you use and are also the creators of some of the awesome step-by-step technical videos featured on DevCentral’s YouTube channel. She and Thomas Stanley crafted the AWS series.

Hitesh Patel is a Sr. Solution Architect covering Cloud/DevOps. He’s one of the smartest cloud cookies we got and works with F5 customers to get a handle on their cloud deployments. He also loves karaoke.

Greg Coward is a Solution Architect on our Business Development team. The BizDev team works with our many technology partners building out joint solutions. Greg covers Microsoft and how BIG-IP plays in Azure among other solutions.

Marty Scholes is an Applications Architect with our Solutions Marketing team. Traditionally, he writes whitepapers, technical articles and helps the Marketing team understand the technical nuances of various solutions and this month he went deep into GoogleCloud deployments.

Finally, someone you probably are already familiar due to her extensive writing and expertise, F5’s Principal Technical Evangelist Lori MacVittie. User 38 on DevCentral, she is a subject matter expert on emerging technologies and how F5 fits with the internet craze these days. I’ve been fortunate to have known & worked with Lori since her early days at F5 when we were both trailblazing Technical Marketing Managers.

The DevCentral team truly appreciates their contributions to Cloud Month and encourages you to connect with them.
