Back to original languageAbout Cédric
Passionate about IT since childhood, seasoned coffee drinker, and acrobatic gamer, I help companies make their systems reliable, performant, and industrialized.
What I Do
I work across the entire software production cycle to transform complex systems into robust and controlled platforms:
- Needs analysis and technical scoping
- Distributed systems architecture
- Operability, performance, and resilience audits
- Definition of operability strategies: SLOs, observability, BCP & DRP
- Design and industrialization of testing strategies (goal: smooth deployment)
- Sharing technical culture: training, workshops, educational materials
My Areas of Expertise
I specialize in distributed software architectures requiring high availability and robustness:
- Multiservice APIs and B2B interconnections
- Event-driven architectures (Message Brokers, Event Modeling)
- Worker / batch / processing oriented architectures
- Design of resilient, fault-tolerant, and scalable services
- Cloud Native Architecture for operability goals (Clever Cloud, Azure): migration to sovereign solutions
My Playground
Based in the Nantes region, I work wherever a system needs to be made more reliable.
If your platform is starting to have major issues, I can provide a clear diagnosis before problems escalate. Shall we discuss it?
