My story of sailing the ocean of Microsoft Technologies

This February is special! The awesome month marks the completion of my decade and a half long stint in the corporate IT world. The small peddle boat of my corporate sailing started on the shores with hardcore programming on Microsoft .NET 1.1 framework. It required lots and lots of efforts to achieve something like an end user rearranging the columns of a grid control by dragging and dropping, which is perhaps 10 seconds of job in today’s low-code/ no-code dominant era. And those night-outs in the office cubicle with hundreds of sips of machine coffee still gave a huge gratification. Those were also the days when we learned – In any software, for any kind of behaviour, there is no magic, only logic. 🙂

But as they say, technology is nothing in itself, it is just a medium to solve business problems, tackle industry challenges. Keeping that philosophy in mind, the inclination was to always understand the business processes, domain and functional aspects of code-on-the-run. And this pursuit, soon sent the boat on the business applications space. It has now been around a decade on the Bizapps journey as well, and you know what, the sailing gets exciting every single day…..!
