Introduction

Welcome! My name’s Timo, and I’ve spent the last years working with cloud infrastructure, automation, and security. This blog is where I share what I’ve learned from building Azure solutions. I cover the good parts, the hard parts, and the things I wish I’d known earlier.

  • Useful advice about Azure, based on what has actually been done
  • Focus on infrastructure as code, security
  • Every week, I publish articles and shorter technical insights

Here is what you will find

Deep Technical Content

I write about the topics that matter when you’re building production Azure environments:

Infrastructure as Code: Terraform modules that actually work, pipeline patterns that scale, and the edge cases nobody talks about until you hit them.

Azure Governance: Policy frameworks that don’t fight you, compliance strategies that make sense, and automation that keeps your environment secure without blocking developers.

Security & Compliance: Real implementations of zero trust, least privilege access patterns, and monitoring that catches problems before they become incidents.

Cloud Architecture: Landing zone designs, subscription patterns, networking strategies, and the architectural decisions that determine whether your environment scales gracefully or becomes technical debt.

Who Am I?

I’m a Cloud Engineer & Developer at Netcloud in Switzerland, specializing in Azure infrastructure, automation, and security.

I believe in:

  • Automation over manual processes: If you do it twice, automate it.
  • Security by design: Governance should enable teams, not block them.
  • Sharing knowledge: The cloud community thrives when we help each other.
  • Practical over theoretical: Theory is interesting; solutions that work in production matter more.

Final Thoughts

Cloud engineering is hard. Azure is powerful but complex. The documentation is very detailed, but it doesn’t always tell the whole story.

This blog aims to address this gap by sharing real-world examples, lessons learned, and effective solutions for production environments.

Welcome on board. Let’s work together to build something great.
