I’m Alan Davies - a data/infrastructure architect and software engineer with many years of experience building database platforms, leading engineering teams and solving hard technical problems, mostly in the financial industry. I’m also an Englishman, occasional Welshman, pretend American, fixer, geek, frustrated guitarist, husband and dad.
This is where I post my personal writing on topics that I care about, mostly data, software and mathematics. Occasionally I may digress into guitars, electronics and whatever else has caught my attention, including how to tie your shoes.
