About Benjamin Abt

Hej,

my name is Ben. I work on high-scalable platforms for IoT and Industry 4.0 focused on the next generation of connected industry based on Azure and .NET.

At a young age I took my first steps in programming with Tcl/TK before I switched to C# in 2002. Before I switched 2007 to ASP.NET MVC, I collected the first web experiences with PHP and ASP.NET WebForms. Right now, I'm focused on cloud and IoT architectures based on .NET, ASP.NET, NoSQL and SQL, Docker and various cloud platforms like DigitalOcean, Amazon AWS - but especially on Microsoft Azure.

In addition to professional development of software, I run the largest German C# community myCSharp.de as administrator and moderator since 2011. Furthermore, I am the founder of the Azure Usergroup Stuttgart, co-founder of the GitHub Usergroup Stuttgart, co-founder of Azure Saturday.

I also actively participate in open source projects, talk on conferences and user groups and run my technology blog. On GitHub you can find me as BenjaminAbt and SchwabenCode and I'm on NuGet, too.

Microsoft has awarded me the Microsoft MVP Award 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018, 2019, 2020 and 2021 for my activities.
