About
This blog is based on my experience working as a consultant in The Netherlands. In this case I refers to Peter Paul van de Beek. For the last few years this instance of I has been working as an architect. Besides that I have experience in several expert roles in projects implementing Service Oriented Architectures. I did quite some presentations on this subject, both as part of pre sales, training of our customers, as well as on Oracle Open World, and masterclasses for the Butler Group.
This blog is targeted on sharing knowledge and trivia in my fields of expertise, preferably in a relaxed environment (like a lounge). Sharing and “consumption” of both knowledge and trivia, will lead to a change in the system (delta).
