Denis Tsyplakov
Denis Tsyplakov is a professional software developer and architect, who started coding in the late eighties as a hobby. By mid-nineties, the demand for software engineers drove him to turn his hobby into profession. Although Denis is a master of a variety of programming languages, his favorite one is Java because of its power, flexibility and elegance. Since 2006, Denis has been working at DataArt as a senior solution architect. He designs complex systems, improves application architecture, and focuses on performance, scale, extensibility, and total cost of ownership. And he does mentoring of other junior architects too. Denis spends his free time with the family, his lovely wife and two daughters; he enjoys hiking and sci-fi books.
