Mike is the inventor and architect of Pipi and the founder of Ajabbi.

"DevOps Research and Assessment (abbreviated to DORA) is a team that is part of Google Cloud that engages in opinion polling software engineers to conduct research for the DevOps movement.
The DORA team was founded by Nicole Forsgren, Jez Humble and Gene Kim. They conducted research for the DevOps company Puppet and later became an independent team (with Puppet continuing to produce reports by a new team).

While the founding members have departed, the DORA team continues to publish research in annual State of DevOps Reports."  - From Wikipedia.
