My first blog post in MSDN
All,
There is always an excitement and authentic feel when we read/blog/refer any of the MSDN Tech blogs. I follow quite a bunch of MSDN blogs and always prefer reading over any other non-Microsoft blog post. I start referring first -MSDN documentation and then PG team blog or PM's blog for better clarity.
Blogging is not new to me, Yes -I have an award winning blog at https://maheshkumar.wordpress.com/ (awarded by our Steve Ballmer) writing for the past 10+ years in WordPress medium(started originally in Live.spaces.com later moved). Being a blogger, I always love to share the interesting tech stuff/code which I read and tried for better understanding and also valuable feedback from readers. I greatly believe in learning by sharing
About me: I am a passionate C#.NET developer & technologist started my career in 2004. I had an opportunity to work with various Microsoft Technology projects in Web and Windows for the companies like Sobha Renaissance IT, Sapient Global Markets and Thomson Reuters. I stared as dev for ASP.NET 2.0, then Window forms, back end developer(Windows/ Web services/WCF) etc. Mostly worked on WPF/XAML winform development, performance tuning, design and delivery products for Healthcare, Trading & Financial market domain. Currently I work for Microsoft as Technical Evangelist for Azure assisting ISV's to grow bigger.
My hobby & passion: I have an innate passion for building/studying/architecting enterprise software systems. I follow Cloud news from the initial stage(early adaptor) and tried various hands-on offerings from Azure and AWS stack. Apart from technical stuff, I spend time with family & friends, market news, travelling, @MahesKBlr and reading strategy books.
What to expect here: I have told myself and going to limit by blogging only codes/hands on experience with Microsoft Technology offerings - .NET /XAML/Services/Azure/Cloud/tips.
