Hi! I'm Lincoln 🙃
Cloud, code, and opinions - straight from real-world experience. I'm Lincoln, a developer who loves automation and making things work (without headaches). The Cloudeveloper is where I share my journey, insights, opinions, and the occasional bad joke. Let’s build smarter!
Over the past decade and more, I’ve worked extensively with a variety of technologies, cultures, and cloud platforms; building serverless applications, modernizing and/or migrating workloads, automating deployments, and optimizing cloud infrastructure. My focus is on helping developers fly in the cloud effectively, saving time and frustration.
Why?
I started The Cloudeveloper to:
- document what I've seen in the industry,
- share some of the struggles that we face,
- share what I'm learning,
- share practical solutions,
- have some fun,
- and help others working with code in the cloud.
My idea is to provide real-world insights that you can apply to your situations.
What?
Now, to narrow down the focus here, even though I worked with many different hosting, infra, and cloud platforms (on-prem, AWS, DigitalOcean, Firebase, Azure, Bluehost, etc.), I'll be primarily addressing the ones I had more exposure to and/or have a preference for (yep, I'll be VERY opinionated).
You'll see more content on Azure, DigitalOcean (and Linux), some Cloudflare, and general Software Engineering ... (maybe some bad jokes)
In terms of tech stack, though it has been quite a while since I last did ASP.NET, I think I still love it and will focus on it as I progress to get up to date with it.
Nov 2025 Update:
I've been noticing there's a shit ton of AI content/code out there, and most importantly, we don't have to do so much Front-end anymore (yay!) due to the huge amounts of copilots, agents or whatever they're called.
I'll be trying to integrate some of these tools to help out with both, content and code, so that we can have a decent amount of content.
Don't get me wrong, the quality of what I write is not good yet, but I guess AI lowers the barrier and ideation phase quite a lot (let's pray). And IMHO, if I review whatever it generates and add my touch, it is still valid AND useful. The biggest problem is when it is not validated. If AI tells me that 2+2=4 and a Math teacher approves it, well, f* it! I learned something. 😏
