James Geall is an independent consultant based in Europe and has been developing distributed systems for over 19 years. For the last 12 years, the majority of those systems have been built using eventsourcing or many of the principals that underpin eventsourcing. He has gained a wealth of experience about the challenges teams face as they try to build and run their service based architectures in the cloud. James teaches teams that buzzwords don't magically deliver success and helps them create the necessary processes and evaluate their options to deliver their projects successfully.
