UTA coached my team along the development process of the migration plan of our on premises data lake to the public cloud. The outstanding level of expertise, both on a technical and organizational level, ensured a well-structured and realistic migration plan including timeline, milestones, and efforts. The enablement of my team was at the center of a very smooth collaboration. Through UTA, we achieved our goal faster and reduced risks of the migration project significantly. I highly recommend UTA’s services!

I recently attended Vattenfall IT's online Kafka training day hosted by Ultra Tendency and it was an enriching experience. The trainer, Ahmed, did a fantastic job of explaining the theory behind Kafka, and the emphasis on practical application was great. The hands-on programming exercises were particularly helpful, and I've never experienced training with so many interactive examples! Overall, I highly recommend this training to anyone who wants to improve their Kafka knowledge interactively and gain valuable skills.
