From Big Data to Agentic AI: 24+ Years of Learning and Adapting

When I started my technology journey, Big Data was getting a lot of attention.

24+ years later, the technology landscape looks very different.

My journey has taken me through:

→ Big Data
→ Data Engineering
→ Cloud
→ DevOps
→ MLOps
→ Databricks
→ Generative AI
→ Agentic AI

Along the way, I’ve had the opportunity to deliver 140+ corporate training programs for organizations including Oracle, TCS, Infosys, Optum, EY, and Capgemini.

But technology has taught me something more important than any specific tool:

You don’t need to learn every new technology.

Focus on understanding the fundamentals, learn the tools that matter, and know how to use them to solve real problems.

Technology will keep changing.

The ability to learn, adapt, and build will always matter.
