Welcome to my digital home!

I am Gregor Reimling, and on this site, I share my insights, experiences, and technical deep-dives into the Microsoft Cloud ecosystem.

My passion for IT was firmly established in my youth. It all started with a C128 and 5.25" floppy disks. While it began with computer games, an "incident" where my sister shoved a newspaper into the floppy disk drive required a nightly rescue operation to fix the hardware. That hands-on troubleshooting experience set the course for my future, leading to an apprenticeship as an IT businessman.

After several years managing IT infrastructure and rollout projects within the Bundeswehr, I made a degree in business informatics at the Bonn-Rhein-Sieg University of Applied Sciences. During my studies, I founded a small consulting firm to help SMEs modernize their IT landscapes with emerging cloud solutions.

My career path led me through pivotal roles focused on Azure innovation and cloud strategy at Conet Solutions and sepago. Today, I work as a Chief Azure Technologist and operate my own freelance cloud consulting firm, BuildClouds. My core focus remains the architecture, design, and secure implementation of public and hybrid cloud projects with Microsoft Azure and Microsoft 365.

Community is at the heart of what I do. I am honored to be a Microsoft MVP for Azure and Security. I founded the Azure Meetup Bonn in 2017 to foster local knowledge exchange, and I regularly co-host the tech podcasts CloudInspires.me. Beside co-hosting podcasts and leading the local Azure Meetup, I am also the founder and co-organizer of the Cloud IdentitySummit.
