AWS Golden Jacket: How navigate all active AWS Certifications

Yes, this is that blog where I spill the tea on navigating all AWS Certifications, from foundation level to specialty and professional in between. I managed to get all 13 certificates in just over 11 months, with no prior knowledge of AWS before this time last year. This was an exciting yet challenging journey. It stretched me and humbled me at the same time, and in the end, I am grateful for the experience. So if you are looking to expand your cloud knowledge, specifically on AWS, buckle up, take out your pens, and start taking notes.

AI in Africa Technology

AI in Africa

Africa’s AI future will not be shaped by how quickly the continent adopts foreign technology, but by how effectively it builds solutions rooted in local realities. Across industries like healthcare, agriculture, fintech, and education, African innovators are creating AI systems designed for the continent’s unique challenges, from mobile-first consumers to limited infrastructure and multilingual communities. While barriers such as funding, talent shortages, and infrastructure gaps remain significant, they are also driving a culture of resilience and practical innovation. As startups, governments, and technology ecosystems continue to grow, Africa has a unique opportunity not only to participate in the global AI economy, but to actively shape it through homegrown intelligence and context-driven solutions.

Why Empathy Is a Technical Skill — and Why We Need It More Than Ever Technology
April 30, 2026 Suzan Baloyi

Why Empathy Is a Technical Skill — and Why We Need It More Than Ever

Empathy is often overlooked in technical environments that prioritise speed, precision, and innovation, yet it plays a critical role in bridging the gap between how systems are designed and how they are actually experienced by people. While systems may be technically correct, they can still create confusion, inefficiency, and frustration when human context is ignored. By recognising the realities users face—pressure, uncertainty, and varying levels of understanding—teams can design more effective, usable solutions. Empathy, therefore, is not just a soft skill but a practical, technical capability that enhances problem-solving, improves collaboration, and ensures that technology truly supports the people who rely on it.

Bad Robot: A Hard Lesson in Disaster Recovery Technology

Bad Robot: A Hard Lesson in Disaster Recovery

A “bad robot” isn’t always a machine it’s any actor with too much access and too little control. Whether it’s a human mistake, a compromised account, or an over-permissioned AI tool, the real risk lies in the blast radius. Once production access is too broad, the distinction between error, automation, and governance failure becomes irrelevant. What matters is not who caused the incident, but how well your systems are designed to survive it.

Bertha Kgokong: From Engineer to Business Woman

I would like to share my story about my journey from engineer to business woman. It has been a journey of discovery, exciting and daunting at the same time. Rewarding, but demanding; and every day I learn something new about society, human psychology, and the fabric that weaves it all together into this fascinating tapestry of the human experience. This is not a blog about my technical journey; this is a story about my personal experience on a professional and relational level and all I have learned about the transition from being an employee to being a visionary, goal setter that creates jobs.

2026 Tech Terms Decoded: Explained by a 2000s Baby

From fax machines and Nokia “bricks” to AI executives and agentic systems, the journey from the early 2000s to 2026 shows just how dramatically our tech language — and infrastructure — has evolved. What once felt high-tech in South Africa was visible and tangible: payphones, network containers, and dial-up connections. Today, the systems powering our world are invisible, intelligent, and always on. Yet behind terms like generative AI, multi-agent systems, Cloud 3.0, and zero-trust security are familiar ideas — just upgraded. This piece unpacks 2026’s biggest tech buzzwords in simple terms, showing that while the tools have changed, the core ideas remain surprisingly relatable.

The Goal of Effective AI Deployment Technology
February 24, 2026 Thabang Shongwe

The Goal of Effective AI Deployment

Effective AI deployment isn’t about building impressive models — it’s about delivering reliable, scalable, secure intelligence that drives real outcomes. Many AI initiatives fail not because the technology is flawed, but because deployment is treated as an afterthought. As we learned while building Skhokho AI, success comes from aligning AI with business goals, embedding it into existing workflows, and applying DevOps principles like automation, observability, and infrastructure discipline. AI is not the product — the outcome is. The true goal is intelligence that works in the real world.
