Hi! My name is Andrey Upadyshev. You may also know me as Oliora.

I’m a professional software developer for almost 20 years, passionated about C++, software architecture and high performance. I worked at many companies in different domains with having C++ as my main programming language for most of the time. I’m in love and hate relation with C++ and esspecially interested in simulataneous rise and fade of the language.

This blog was created to share some of my findings, thoughts and ranting about C++ and, sometimes, the other tech.

Bio

I was born in Saint-Petersburg, Russia in 1981.

In 2002 I got Bachelor degree in Computer Science at Saint Petersburg National Research University of Information Technologies, Mechanics and Optics.

In 2014 I’ve moved to the Netherlands.

I’m a big fan of Open Source Software and involved in several projects, most notably the following:

  • Ppconsul - a C++ client for Consul. I’m the author and the maintainer for this project.
  • AZMQ - the library which integrates ZeroMQ and Boost.Asio. I’ve ported it to Windows and maintaned it (along others) for some time.

Apart from software development I like to cook, travel, make photos, explore arts and enjoy good wines.
