Topic 1 - Give us a little bit of your background and what some of your focus areas are these days?

Topic 2 - You live in the Bay Area, but also attend events and talk to companies outside the Bay Area. Give us some perspective on how different those world are.

Topic 3 - People have heard of 12-Factor Apps and Microservices. Give us the basics of how they are different from “traditional apps”, especially in the context of using/storage/managing data.

Topic 4 - A while back, I asked you to start digging into the area of “data + containers”, because I wanted to better understand how these new application architectures would deal with persistent data.

Topic 5 - Tell us about some of the project you’re currently working on
