About The Author
Hey Everyone,
My name is Michael Levan! I'm an independent DevOps and Cloud consultant based out of the US.

I have two goals in my consulting practice:
- Translate technical complexity into practical value for businesses and engineers.
- Ensure that everything I do, whether it's consulting, content, or other activities (public speaking, books, etc.) is of the utmost quality - "quality engineering over duct tape" is a phrase that I use often.
This blog, Cloud Native Deep Dive, has a primary goal of providing well in an effective way. Whether you're a potential client reading about the work I do or an engineer looking to skill up in the DevOps and Cloud arena, this blog site is for you.
Bio: Michael Levan translates technical complexity into practical value.
