I am currently an architect at WSO2. I graduated from the University of Moratuwa, Sri Lanka, with a specialization in Computer Science and Engineering. As a committer at Apache Stratos, I have a strong interest in cloud technologies, including Istio, Kubernetes, Docker, and Envoy. My areas of interest include big data analysis, software engineering, computer architecture, data mining, distributed computing, mobile computing, and cloud computing.
