Mr. Mega was a Senior Technical Staff Member at the IBM Research & Development Lab in Boeblingen, Germany till end of 2015. During the active time at IBM he vested the role of software architect in the area of ECM Cloud Services development  in the position of manager of the IBM European ECM Competency Center. After leaving IBM in 2015 Mr Mega joint the the IPVS Application Systems department at the University of Stuttgart and co-founded a startup end of 2017, the Content Management Consulting Services GmbH, providing expert consulting on ECM systems architecture design to IBM ECM customers. His current work focus is on evolving the ECM architecture and design in a such a way to allow thgem to successfully compete with their cloud native competitors running on modern cloud pletforms. A second goal of his research effort is to promote the move off of non-European cloud platforms and onto the European clouds aiming at a european digital sovereignty such as envisioned by the GAIA-X initiative. www.data-infrastructure.eu
