Hi all! I am Davide Polonio, a programmer and devOps engineer. I am born
in 1994 and started messing with computers since I was 8 (my first OS
was the only and glorious Windows 95), and from there I continued my
path to learn about computers and how to +break+ tweak them. I graduated
at university of Padova with a master degree in computer science
in 2018.
I prefer back-end stuff (I usually end up using Java, Golang, Rust and
Bash to gluing stuff around), especially automating releases with
Continuous Integration and Continuous Delivery. I create and manage
pipelines for Jenkins (and I currently administer Jenkins as well), but
I also know other CI systems like Github Actions, Travis CI, Drone CI
(or the now clone Woodpecker). I enjoy container technologies, starting
from Docker, Podman and going on to orchestrators like Docker Swarm,
Kubernetes and Nomad (which I would like to learn more of the lasts
two). If I can, I use Infrastructure as Code (IaC) tools like Terraform
and Packer to create and maintain infrastructure on cloud providers,
like AWS or Scaleway (I also maintain
[[https://github.com/Polpetta/packer-plugin-podman][Podman plugin for Packer]]).
Automation is usually my preferred way, since it helps developers focus
only on the business product instead of messing with tasks that can be
done by a machine. Finally, I am interested in development processes
like (but not only) Agile, Scrum, Waterfall. I think the right way to
develop a product starts from how you organize your workflow and what
processes you put in place in order to keep the /development machine/
going.
I am an open source enthusiast, so when I am able in my free time (or
paid time if it is an open source business project) I like to contribute
to open source projects and discover new ones. I believe in the added
values that open source software (and especially free software) can give
respect to closed ones. My dream job would be to contribute to one of
the many open source I like full time! 🤩
I'm not only into programming though! I like to practice sport. In
particular, I am a black belt Judo and I teach it at the local dojo were
I live. I know how to ski from when I was I child, and if possible I
enjoy passing some time in the middle of mountains to admire the beauty
of nature in winter. Finally, I like to play tabletops games and I enjoy
things like table football, billiards, bowling (although I suck at the
last one 😅).
If you are interested in getting in touch with me (or to get my resume)
you can send me an e-mail (I prefer this way) at
[[mailto:davide+bitdispenser@poldebra.me][davide@poldebra.me]] or you
can contact me through my

As I have already written at the beginning of [my first blog post]({{<
ref “/hello-world.md” >}}) I liked the idea of a place where I can share
my thoughts regarding technologies, personal experiences and what not.
