Michael Hausenblas

Contact

My name is Michael Hausenblas and I work at Mesosphere where I help appops to be successful with container technologies such as Apache Mesos, Marathon, Kubernetes, Docker, as well as elastic data processing around Spark, Kafka, HDFS, HBase, Cassandra and time series databases.

Mesosphere Inc. is a pre-IPO start-up based out of San Francisco, CA. We are the initiators of DC/OS (Datacenter Operating System), a distributed OS that uses Apache Mesos as its kernel.

Please use m.hausenblas@acm.org for any general enquiries.
