[Post Event] DevTalks Cluj, 2025

By

 Cluj just hosted DevTalks, one of the biggest and most vibrant tech events in Transylvania. The event brought together thousands of developers, engineers, and innovators under one roof, and the energy was fantastic.

I had the chance to take the stage and talk about something very close to my heart: how to build and structure teams for Cloud AI projects. We often talk about the technology — the models, the platforms, the automation — but what really makes or breaks success is the team.

My message was simple: building AI in the cloud isn’t a one-person show. It takes AI/ML experts, data scientists, cloud and platform engineers, developers, and security specialists all working side by side. The real magic happens when you get the balance right and put automation and platform engineering at the core

If I had to leave the audience with one idea, it’s this: “AI in the cloud is a team sport. When you get the structure right, innovation, scalability, and cost efficiency follow naturally.

A big thank you to the DevTalks organizers and everyone who joined me in Cluj — it was a real pleasure to share ideas and connect.

Why Database Modernization Matters for AI

By
  When companies transition to the cloud, they typically begin with applications and virtual machines, which is often the easier part of the process. The actual complexity arises later when databases are moved. To save time and effort, cloud adoption is more of a cloud migration in an IaaS manner, fulfilling current, but not future needs. Even organisations that are already in the cloud find that their databases, although “migrated,” are not genuinely modernised. This disparity becomes particularly evident when they begin to explore AI technologies. Understanding Modernisation Beyond Migration Database modernisation is distinct from merely relocating an outdated database to Azure. It's about making your data layer ready for future needs, like automation, real-time analytics, and AI capabilities. AI needs high throughput, which can be achieved using native DB cloud capabilities. When your database runs in a traditional setup (even hosted in the cloud), in that case, you will enc...

How to audit an Azure Cosmos DB

By
In this post, we will talk about how we can audit an Azure Cosmos DB database. Before jumping into the problem let us define the business requirement: As an Administrator I want to be able to audit all changes that were done to specific collection inside my Azure Cosmos DB. The requirement is simple, but can be a little tricky to implement fully. First of all when you are using Azure Cosmos DB or any other storage solution there are 99% odds that you’ll have more than one system that writes data to it. This means that you have or not have control on the systems that are doing any create/update/delete operations. Solution 1: Diagnostic Logs Cosmos DB allows us activate diagnostics logs and stream the output a storage account for achieving to other systems like Event Hub or Log Analytics. This would allow us to have information related to who, when, what, response code and how the access operation to our Cosmos DB was done. Beside this there is a field that specifies what was th...
