Hey Aiven folks!
I’m Chief Architect at Amplifier Security. We are a start up focused on Human Centric Security. I’m mostly writing code, talking to customers, and breaking stuff. We have a Node/TypeScript stack running on GCP. We use Aiven for MySQL right now, with plans to add Redis, and Graphana. Future use cases will probably leverage Kafka for real time event processing, and ClickHouse for data analytics.
I’m excited to see what’s next for the platform.
Great to meet you, @amp-davidespo ! 
Thanks a lot too for jumping in to help answer some other folks’ questions! 
Hello Aiven community -
I’m Jeff, a fellow crab 
here at Aiven hailing from Austin, Texas.
I manage our global demand generation and field marketing teams. I’m passionate about learning about our customers and supporting the community however I can. I joined Aiven because I love open-source. In a former life, I helped the US government create publicly accessible datasets and APIs, and adopt open-source and github (primarily at the US Census Bureau with the CitySDK project)
If you are in the Austin area I’m always up for tacos or bbq 
Happy to connect on Twitter or LinkedIn!

I bring expertise in AWS, DevOps, Azure, Data Science, Python, and Java.
I have come here to further develop my skills, enhance problem-solving abilities, and seek guidance from experts to improve.

I’ve been using Aiven for a while and joined the forum for the fist time (is the community slack gone?)
I am co-founder at Timeplus and we open-sourced our core engine at GitHub - timeplus-io/proton: A streaming SQL engine, a fast and lightweight alternative to Apache Flink, 🚀 powered by ClickHouse. Last few days, I setup a Kafka on avien, generate some live data and use Proton to read and transform/aggregate the data and send them to a ClickHouse service on aiven with subsecond latency.
You can also chat with me on Jove Zhong - Timeplus | LinkedIn
Hey @jove I don’t think we ever had a community Slack (yet) but we’re working on launching another realtime communication channel. I see on your Linkedin that you’re in Canada, are you connected with any Aiveners over there?
Hi Floor, I was in a slack for Aiven Startup Program. Yes, I am in Vancouver Canada and had a couple of meeting with “local” Aiveners
Awesome! Ah, that’s what you mean with Slack then, you were part of the Cluster channel I guess
@jove Hey neat, I’m in Vancouver too! (well. 
out in the 'burbs.) If you ever want to grab coffee and nerd out about open source data stuff, let me know!
Sure, happy to have a coffee together. Let me DM you.
