About Yves

Hello,

I work as a Senior Azure Architect, and I have been dedicated to Azure Cloud architecture for 4 years. I have worked for large companies such as Louis Dreyfus Company, LVMH, etc., as well as for specialized Microsoft consulting firms (Projetlys and Metsys).

My areas of specialization in Azure are:
- Management and implementation of governance (Management Group, Subscription, Policy, Tag, Security, Backup, RBAC, Naming Convention, and Finops).
- Implementation of Hub and Spoke network infrastructure.
- On-Premise to Azure migration with Azure Migrate and Data Migration Assistant.
- Cost estimation for Azure infrastructure (Landing Zone and Applications).
- Consulting on M365 security (MFA, PIM, Conditional Access, private endpoint, etc.).
- Azure DevOps.
- Agile Scrum.
- WebApp and AKS infrastructure.

I am available for further information. Finally, I am trilingual (I worked in English for a long time in my role at LDC) and I lived in Colombia, so I am fluent in Spanish.

I have a strong sense of and ability to adapt to different environments I encounter.

Sincerely,

Yves DIDON
