Nils Magnus, Cloud Architect for the Open Telekom Cloud
Nils Magnus can look back on more than 20 years of voluntary work in the community. He leads the editorial team that reviews the submitted suggestions and revises them together with the authors. Alongside his work at T-Systems, he founded LinuxTag, regularly publishes articles as a tech journalist, speaks at conferences and is a member of the board of the German Unix User Group.
Interested authors can send us a brief description of their tutorial idea using the form below – our editorial team will be in touch straight away.
Our editorial team concludes a cost agreement with the author. Both sides work closely together to implement the tutorial.
Once our editorial team has reviewed the tutorial, it is published in the Open Telekom Cloud Community.
