Recently, I have decided to join ThePowerMBA program. Since quite some people have asked me why I chose to attend the course, here is my answer. ThePowerMBA in a Nutshell ThePowerMBA program is a roughly one-year long online course that gives a broad overview over a variety of topics: Business model innovation Testing business ideas & lean startup Business and marketing strategies Leadership Entrepreneurship & fundraising Digital marketing Finance & accounting HR & talent management The topics are taught in so-called microlearnings which are basically videos of ~15 minutes length every day.

Previously, I ran my website with a PHP-based CMS on a shared host and since quite some time I wanted to port it to a static site generator and serve it off of AWS S3. Finally, I found the time to do it. This post summarizes what and why I did my website as it is now, and what process and tools I used to achieve it. Setting the Goal With my old website running on Kirby CMS for years I had to maintain a shared host that runs it, and have Cloudflare setup to have improved loading times.
