Luis Arizmendi Alonso

Luis started developing Java web service applications on top of Solaris OS and later shifted to building and designing virtualization environments based on VMware, EMC, and Cisco for integration partner Anadat. Looking for a change, he joined HPE as a network consultant driving presales design and delivering network-related projects, which mainly included switches and routers, firewalls, and load balancers.

After being involved in several cloud projects, he joined a new HPE team focused on OpenStack IaaS and Cloud Foundry PaaS (at the same time HPE Helion OpenStack was released).

Luis joined Red Hat and started working as Specialized Solution Architect covering the EMEA region. He's been part of three groups, first in OpenStack, later in OpenShift, and now as Specialized Solution Architect in edge computing use cases. He thoroughly enjoys helping customers and partners in adopting edge computing and promoting not just the technology but also the new culture of collaboration between the IT/OT and ops/dev silos.
