In this episode, I continue my conversation with our guest Robert Cooke, founder of 3forge, a provider of data virtualization and visualization technology. In this conversation, Robert shares 

  • What was the startup bug that bit him.. The urge to reinvent how software is developed based on experience, after getting a feeling that 90% of the code written is quite similar across teams and organizations and how that can be a base for reuse
  • Solve it once, solve it well, reuse it.
  • His approach to abstracting many of the operations needed, for example, the user interface widgets and experience, to reduce the work needed to create and deploy solutions quickly
  • The  story behind the name of his company 3forge — started asForge financial framework and then evolved into 3forge
  • His thoughts on processing data in real time v/s in batch or offline mode 
  • His thoughts on defensive coding and a 2 minute intro to defensive coding
  • How he manages his time and what stresses him
