About
About me
I’m Reza Salehi, a cloud and AI architect, software developer, and trainer with 25 years of technical experience. My work focuses on Microsoft Azure, solution architecture, cloud security, and applied AI.
Cloud & AI Architect and Trainer
For many years, I have worked across professional software development, technical training, and architecture. Over the past decade, my focus has centered on cloud and AI, including eight years shaping cloud and solution architectures.
My work is independent and outcome-focused: helping organizations connect architecture choices to security, compliance, performance, reliability, and cost. I also teach developers, architects, and cloud learners through private training, published courses, and my book, Azure Cookbook.
