Introduction

Welcome! I’m Timo, and I’ve spent the half part of a decade working with cloud infrastructure, automation, and security. This blog is where I share what I’ve learned building Azure solutions, the good parts, the hard parts, and the “why didn’t anyone tell me this sooner” parts.

  • Practical Azure guidance from real-world implementations
  • Focus on Infrastructure as Code, security, and governance
  • Weekly in-depth articles plus shorter technical insights
  • No fluff, no theory-only content—everything here has been battle-tested

What You’ll Find Here

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 comprehensive but rarely tells the complete story.

This blog exists to fill that gap, to share the real-world patterns, the hard-won lessons, and the solutions that actually work in production environments.

Welcome aboard. Let’s build something great together.
