Fueling tech-powered business performance, through transformation. 

​

My mission: help companies allocate technology spend against the best investments - to maximize ROI and reduce TCO.  

​

My expertise: Enterprise IT - whether investing in digital customer interactions, adopting cloud solutions, modernizing legacy technology, strengthening security infrastructures, re-organizing IT operating models... 

...and specifically DATAFICATION - a key driver of the 4th industrial revolution (4IR, or Industry 4.0). 

​

Whilst this word 'datafication' is yet to enter a dictionary, it can be defined as 'the transformation of events into data, or formats that can be stored digitally'. 

​

The Event Streaming Platform is a revolution in data infrastructure and application architecture.  Instead of storing static data (in a relational database, or a data lake), the streaming platform captures events, as they happen, in real time, at massive scale. 

​

Streaming Platforms have the potential to be as critical in business as the relational database has been. My current focus is to help companies adopt event streaming platforms to realise the benefits of working with real-time data, at massive scale.
