Divine Abiloro

I’m a software engineer. I work on distributed systems and data infrastructure: databases, data engineering, and transaction-log processing. That means change data capture, replication, and the systems that keep data correct and in order as it moves between databases.

I’m the creator of Remac, a high-performance, database-agnostic transaction log processor. It turns native database transaction logs into governed data streams, replicas, audit records, recovery data, and replayable events.

My background also runs through networking, backend, and blockchain, and most of the projects here come from that work. I write as well. Some of it is deeply technical. Some of it is more reflective, and sometimes philosophical.
