About the Author
David Gonzalez is an enthusiastic engineer and author of a book called Developing Microservices with Node.js; as microservices don't work without platform automation, he wrote this book to deliver the best possible deal to the readers of both books.
He is a Google Developer Expert (a nomination from Google to certain experts in several areas) in Kubernetes (GKE), who enjoys being pushed out of his comfort zone in order to sharpen his skills. Java, Node.js, Python, and DevOps--as well as a holistic approach to security--are part of the skill set that has helped him deliver value across different start-ups and corporations.
Nowadays, he is a consultant at nearForm, enabling companies to deliver the best possible solution to their IT problems or proposals, as well as an avid speaker at conferences, such as RebelCon and Google I/O Extended, among others.
