Our story
Built by an architect, for architects.
Linda is the founder of TechExplained and works as a Partner Solution Architect at Microsoft, in Cloud Solutions Data & AI. Before that she worked as an IT Auditor, Data Engineer and Data Architect, designing and building enterprise Data & AI platforms for a healthcare client, banking, an insurer and the public sector.
Today she works with Microsoft partners across the Benelux region on secure, scalable and cost-efficient platforms built on Microsoft Fabric, Azure Databricks, Microsoft Foundry, Microsoft Purview and Microsoft 365 Copilot. Data & AI Cost Management is one of her core specialisations: cost is an architectural design decision, not something to analyse after deployment.
TechExplained grew out of that practice. Every article, Architecture Lab, Architecture Pattern and podcast starts with a real customer implementation, and explains not only what works but also the trade-offs, limitations and architectural decisions behind it.
