Who i am?

DevOps - A server side Developer who likes Operations too!

My name is Karan Thanvi. I'm a passionate system engineer with ~1.5 years experience in this domain, focused on building and operating APIs and Servers. Despite of all these, I'm still (and will always be) a "learner" who is a programming enthusiast.

Apart from being a server guy, I know about web development and application development(which I'm still learning).

Other than the techie stuff, I'm a FUNNY guy who likes to roam around different places.

I believe in sir Mark Twain's quote:
It's not about the size of the dog in the fight...it's about the size of the fight in the dog!
