I studied software engineering and started my own <span id=\"urn:batch-analysis-69a5b7d1-dd0e-40a3-9de6-6a9c56b7768b\" class=\"textannotation disambiguated wl-no-link wl-other\" itemid=\"http:\/\/data.wordlift.io\/wl01770\/entity\/business\">business<\/span> all whilst I was still studying. I got in touch with workflow engines and got passionate about the whole topic. Since then I have contributed to various open source engines and have couched countless customers using these tools. I have worked on the relevant standard in that field (BPMN) and wrote a book on it. The great thing is that the <span id=\"urn:batch-analysis-e5aa6994-0d66-4b83-9b3e-7c2d6d7b86f0\" class=\"textannotation disambiguated wl-no-link wl-other\" itemid=\"http:\/\/data.wordlift.io\/wl01770\/entity\/ember_company\">company<\/span> I co-founded now has a very successful open source workflow engine on the market \u2013 so I can continue doing what I love for a living.<\/p>\n<h2>When did you start coding for the very first time?<\/h2>\n<p>I learned Basic very early when I was in school and soon got into Turbo Pascal. Then I coded a lot for fun, e.g. a Scrabble game among other things. I continued with Delphi, did some things in Visual Basic, tried to avoid C and C++ and jumped on <span id=\"urn:batch-analysis-bd553a09-69be-4de3-b94f-8b306a58a588\" class=\"textannotation disambiguated wl-no-link wl-other\" itemid=\"http:\/\/data.wordlift.io\/wl01770\/entity\/java\">Java<\/span> soon.

Why did you choose this job?<\/h2>\n<p>In my current role as developer advocate I write articles or speak at conferences a lot, but still do a technical proof of concepts or solution design sessions with customers to know the real word. So that means I do still write code in the POC\u2019s or for demos \u2013 which I love doing \u2013 it is a good way to relax.<\/p>\n<h2>How did you manage to transform your passion into a successful career?<\/h2>\n<p>I started my own <span id=\"urn:batch-analysis-46c1fab6-6135-4475-9221-6eb92e6a7ace\" class=\"textannotation disambiguated wl-no-link wl-other\" itemid=\"http:\/\/data.wordlift.io\/wl01770\/entity\/ember_company\">company<\/span> and was very persistent about certain things, but I also had tons of luck.<\/p>\n<h2>What has been the biggest challenge you have ever met?<\/h2>\n<p>Leading people \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n<h2>Who could use these technologies you are developing in Camunda? Are you used to eat your own dog food?<\/h2>\n<p>I basically look at how state handling is required to solve a couple of challenges you get in distributed systems. In order to make concrete code examples, I use the open source engine Camunda as a lightweight state machine. As this is our own open source project I also talk about which other options are on the market as I want to focus on the concepts \u2013 not the concrete tool.<br \/>\nI personally think that this state handling will be huge in the future with ever increasing architectures that are more and more distributed. For example transactions, there are no ACID transactions in this world \u2013 you have to care about consistency yourself using appropriate <span id=\"urn:batch-analysis-c9f1c923-7dad-467a-b2a3-fb03800d8c6e\" class=\"textannotation disambiguated wl-no-link wl-other\" itemid=\"http:\/\/data.wordlift.io\/wl01770\/entity\/strategy\">strategies<\/span> that almost always involve state handling.<\/p>\n<h2>At Codemotion Berlin, you are going to talk about microservices. Where did the idea of doing this talk come about?<\/h2>\n<p>A lot of our customers are moving towards architectures that are highly distributed systems (e.g. microservices) and I see a lot of <span id=\"urn:batch-analysis-81d2c675-4e30-4d9a-872d-85cba3d12266\" class=\"textannotation disambiguated wl-no-link wl-other\" itemid=\"http:\/\/data.wordlift.io\/wl01770\/entity\/project\">projects<\/span> struggle with challenges of the distributed systems world. I wrote about this on InfoWorld and also made a talk out of it.<\/p>\n<h2>Do you have any suggestion for our attendees on how to stay updated on the latest technologies?<\/h2>\n<p>Nothing very special, check the known tech news sites or follow the right people on Twitter. And of course, go to meetups or conferences regularly!<\/p>\n<h2>What\u2019s the most inspiring music that you listen to while you are programming?<\/h2>\n<p>None \ud83d\ude09 I actually enjoy the silence while programming whenever possible.
