When cloud computing was taking off in the late 2000s, Marius perceived its enormous potential. From then, he followed up closely with the evolution of cloud technologies, with a focus on IaaS, PaaS or hybrid architectures, and particularly in Azure, Microsoft’s cloud. He has a mixed background of developer and IT professional, allowing it to position himself in consulting on complex application or infrastructure projects, as well as training and coaching teams on developing, administering and architecting cloud solutions.
As Azure MVP and Advisor, Marius Zaharia works closely with Microsoft product teams on giving feedback and insights on various Azure services and technologies.
Marius is a passionate and proactive member of the global Azure community, community manager of AZUG FR (Azure User Group France), organizer and speaker at cloud related events and conferences, blog writer, and – in his limited spare time left – guitar player and singer.
