Chandan PandeyChandan Pandey is an Oracle Certified Enterprise architect with more than 10 years of experience in designing, coding, and delivering enterprise applications using various tools and technologies. He has always been amused by the power of software tha reduces the boredom of repetitive tasks and introduces agility and efficiency. He firmly believes that tools, technology, and methodology are a medium to provide a solution and would like to be positioned as a solutions expert rather than limiting his identity to a framework or tool. This is reflected in the breadth and depth of his work; he is proficient not only in traditional languages and frameworks such as Java/JEE and Spring, but also in Groovy and Grails, Vaadin, and Play Framework, to name a few. His domain experience varies from blogging applications, web frameworks, content management systems, and finance, to networking & telecom. For him, the end result should be extendable, scalable, secure, and easy-to-use systems! He believes in community ecosystems and tries to share his learning with larger audiences. He writes regularly at www.chandanpandey.com, and this book is a step forward to connect with the community. When he is not working or writing, he likes to go on road trips with his family to explore new avenues—be it spiritual, historical, or just a leisure tour! India being his home country, he is never short of surprises and variety! Read More Read Less
