I’m Rajaniesh Kaushikk, a technology leader, author, and educator with 25 years of experience working across data, cloud, AI, and enterprise architecture.
I’m a Microsoft MVP, Databricks MVP, and Databricks Champion, and I’ve spent much of my career helping organizations turn emerging technologies into solutions that actually work in the real world.
My areas of focus include Generative AI, Agentic AI, Microsoft Foundry, Microsoft Fabric, Azure, Databricks, Snowflake, data engineering, and modern data architecture. I’m particularly interested in bridging the gap between learning a technology and understanding how to use it in an enterprise environment.
I’m also the author of two books:
The Data Lakehouse Revolution — Apress Databricks Certified Generative AI Engineer Associate Study Guide: Generative AI with Databricks — O’Reilly
Beyond my professional work, I regularly speak at technology conferences and community events, sharing practical lessons from building and designing modern Data & AI solutions.
What you can expect from my courses
I believe technical learning should answer three questions:
What is it? How does it work? And how would I actually use it?
That’s how I teach.
Rather than simply walking through features or slides, my courses focus on architecture, hands-on implementation, real-world scenarios, demos, design decisions, and lessons learned from enterprise environments.
Whether you’re learning Databricks, Microsoft Fabric, Generative AI, AI agents, or cloud architecture, my goal is simple: help you understand the technology well enough that you can confidently apply it yourself.
