About
I'm Utkarsh Bhatt, a software engineer at Canonical. I work on Ceph for Ubuntu, which mostly means making distributed storage easier to run: packaging, tooling, and lately MicroCeph. Some of that work ends up on conference stages; most of it ends up in a terminal.
Off the clock: dogs, cars, computers, and going places. Some of those places make it into the blog.
