Cornelia Davis, Chief Technology Officer, Weaveworks
As the Chief Technology Officer at WeaveWorks, Cornelia Davis is responsible for the company’s technology strategy, inclusive of open source projects as well as commercial products. She is driven by the desire to help enterprises transform their business though the leverage of cloud platforms. She cut her teeth in the space of modern application platforms at Pivotal where she was on teams that brought Pivotal Cloud Foundry (Pivotal’s PaaS) and Pivotal Container Service (Pivotal’s Kubernetes Service) to market. She is the author of the book Cloud Native Patterns: Designing Change-tolerant Software.

An industry veteran with almost three decades of experience in image processing, scientific visualization, distributed systems and web application architectures, and cloud-native platforms, Cornelia holds the B.S. and M.S. in Computer Science from California State University, Northridge and further studied theory of computing and programming languages at Indiana University.

When not doing those things you can find her on the yoga mat or in the kitchen.
