Top SchoolMarcus Franke is a Senior Cloud Engineer based in Schleswig-Holstein, Germany, with over two decades in IT and 11 years focused on cloud and DevOps engineering. He evolved from systems administration for a local newspaper into cloud architecture and platform roles, specializing in AWS, serverless migrations, observability, and SIEM integrations. Marcus has led cloud consolidations and migrations—eliminating Kubernetes in favor of team-account serverless patterns—and built observability platforms with Datadog and Kyverno-enabled GitOps workflows. Recently he has pivoted into FinOps and cloud cost optimization, bringing a practical cost-control mindset to architecture decisions. Known for stabilizing platforms post-startup transition and optimizing low-latency trading systems earlier in his career, he combines deep operational experience with a knack for pragmatic automation.
