It’s been a few months since my last post, which is not necessarily what I intended, but I took some time off at the beginning of the year before jumping into new ventures. Since then, I’ve been quite engaged coming up to speed with a new team and getting going on some data architecture challenges. There have also been a lot of meetings and a good bit of family time.
Those who have followed this blog for a long time know that there was a time when I was doing a lot of .Net work. In a previous life, I did a lot of federal contracting and that world is very Windows-centric and .Net is a common platform. The last few years have offered little opportunity to work with it, though I did do some server-based work in .Net core that ended up running in production in Alpine containers on AWS. That solved a specific business need and I didn’t need to touch it much after it was deployed.
