If you’ve ever wondered what services an ELK consultant can offer, I’ve put together a matrix of offerings organized by category. It’s the list of tasks a consultant can, and should, carry out, in whole or in part, for their clients.

It’s quite an overview, and pretty impressive when you look at it. That’s exactly why I love this job: it’s varied and cross-functional. There’s never time to get bored, and there’s always something new to learn...

I'm having a blast with Elastic Agent Skills + Elastic CLI + OpenCode + Neovim + Claude 🚀 1/11

The future Elastic is one of the pioneers, among the companies furthest ahead on AI. Learning to integrate all of this with the stack is a step toward the future, and it takes a fairly low-level understanding of how the architecture works. 10/11

Building that understanding now is an investment in your future résumé. 11/11

Spoke at Holberton School Bordeaux yesterday about my journey as a freelance Elasticsearch consultant 🔥 @holbertonschool @HolbertonFRA One thing I told the students: there are 2 axes to a tech career. And we all obsess over the wrong one. linkedin.com/posts/mathieuel…

Axis 1: pure technical skills. That's the part everyone works on. Axis 2: the business side. Who you are, your story, your brand, your offer, your ambition level. As techies, we neglect axis 2. That's a mistake.

Going deep on one niche (Elasticsearch for me) is what lets me work with clients in Switzerland, Luxembourg and the US — from Bordeaux. The topic is endless. My DMs are open, anywhere in the world 😉

Ruby on rails or django? Can't decide for my next project! Maybe both in parallel and choose later? Can be a nice experiment...

Thinking meta: if you are back in 1998, building websites and being enthousiast, you innovate and you are a pioneer. What would be the equivalent today ? As creating "classic" saas is mainstream (even if they can be game changers) ?

Maybe its about web3 / blockchain / dao / defi. Even if it sounds mainstream today so much work has to be done to implement and create the corresponding services..
