About

Akshay Sura

Co-founder and partner at Konabos Inc., based in Temecula, California. Ten-time Sitecore MVP and two-time Kontent.ai MVP.

I have been building software professionally since 1999, focused on content management systems and digital experience platforms. I started working with Sitecore in 2007 on version 5.3, and most of my career since has been spent architecting, developing, and shipping enterprise solutions on the platform.

My work now spans composable and headless architecture, platform modernization, enterprise search, integrations, cloud delivery, and the practical use of AI in software development. I am a ten-time Sitecore MVP and a two-time Kontent.ai MVP.

I am a co-founder and partner at Konabos Inc., where we try to live three simple values every day: be kind, be fair, and keep exploring.

Community has been a large part of my career. I founded the Sitecore Hackathon in 2014 and still run it. I co-founded SUGCON North America and SUGCON India, helped start Sitecore Slack and Unofficial Sitecore Training, and built SiteCron, an open-source Sitecore scheduling module now in its tenth year with more than 411,000 downloads.

This site is where I keep the archive of what I have written and built, first person, for other developers.
