Why we started FABR

Making the first step into the cloud is still a topic being debated by many organisations, big and small. Once they start operating with cloud providers, there is another set of challenges they encounter every day.The problem is made worse by the severe skill shortage in DevOps and cloud infrastructure. During countless conversations we have had with many organisations, not being able to attract and retain talent for their cloud operations almost always comes up.As experienced professionals working in the field, we started out in 2022 to develop products to address this exact problem. For us, solving the problem will unlock huge productivity gains. We also sense that now is a good time to tackle the problem with the advance in cloud computing and artificial intelligence.We know there are hurdles along the journey. We are all ears for anything you have in mind in this space. Book a call with us and tell us your challenges!


Who we are

My name is Chen. I started my career as a software developer, progressing to engineering leadership in various organisations. Not only did I feel the same pain of lack of cloud operational expertise myself, I almost talked to many organisations to understand their individual problems.

I started building and not long after, I met Janaka who shares a similar career trajectory and brings in a vast amount of cloud operational expertise to FABR from his past roles as a technical product manager and senior engineering management in DevOps/Cloud.

Here we are at your service. Feel free to grab any one of us to talk about your organisation's cloud operations.
