About DevTrends

DevTrends UK (devtrends.co.uk) was a cloud focused .NET consultancy based in the UK. Following a move abroad, the UK business has been closed and I do not expect post any new articles here, but I have left this site up for posterity.

I now live in Canada and run a new DevTrends software development business focused excusively on maintaining and updating legacy ASP.NET applications
