Reinhard Burgmann
Head of Data Ecosystem

„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 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.“
