The best knowledge-sharing happens when practitioners step out of the office and into the classroom. That's exactly what RJ Callao, Lead Software Engineer at 3Cloud, did at IT'er Festival 2026 — serving as a Resource Speaker and giving students a real look at software development in practice: career paths, Agile team dynamics, and how to build the technical foundations that hold up when it counts. At 3Cloud, we believe investing in the next generation of tech talent is how great industry-education relationships get built. Thank you, RJ, for representing 3Cloud and giving those students something they can actually use. #3Cloud #SoftwareEngineering #TechCareers #Community #Cloud #AI

What an inspiring showcase of innovation at EXPE21ENCE YSES: The Hackfest at the University of the Philippines Los Baños (UPLB)! One thing was clear: the next generation of developers is already building solutions that matter. 3Cloud had the opportunity to support this 21-year tradition of connecting education and industry by engaging with talented students using AI to solve real-world challenges. The impact was clear: - Solutions spanned disaster resilience, governance platforms, sustainable mobility, and environmental monitoring - AI was applied not just for innovation, but for real-world impact - Students demonstrated the ability to turn ideas into working applications A special thank you to Arvie Limbo from our Global Delivery Team for representing 3Cloud as a judge and helping elevate these incredible projects. Congratulations to Team Iterate for winning with “Pathag,” an AI-powered navigation solution that helps users find safer and more accessible routes by accounting for real-world sidewalk conditions and reported obstacles. For 3Cloud, this experience reinforces what we believe: innovation thrives when we collaborate with emerging talent. Thanks to YSES and all participants. We’re excited to continue supporting the future of tech. #3Cloud #Hackathon #AI #Innovation #TechForGood

What a week at #FabCon 2026 in Atlanta! One thing was clear: Microsoft Fabric is moving from vision to velocity. Last week, our team connected with customers and Microsoft leaders to explore what’s next—from real-time intelligence and AI-powered experiences to enterprise-scale governance in OneLake. The momentum is real: - Fabric is becoming the center of gravity for modern data platforms - AI is no longer an add-on—it’s embedded across the stack - Organizations are shifting from experimentation to production at scale For 3Cloud, the conversations reinforced what we’re seeing with our clients every day: the opportunity isn’t just adopting Fabric—it’s operationalizing it to drive measurable business outcomes. One of the highlights of the week was hosting a Thursday night BBQ event, bringing together Microsoft colleagues, customers, and the 3Cloud team for great conversations and new connections. Thanks to everyone who spent time with us in Atlanta—we’re excited to keep the momentum going. #FabCon #MicrosoftFabric #DataAndAI #3Cloud

This week our team was on the ground in Las Vegas for the Databricks Partner Summit, focused on planning ahead and meeting with senior leadership. It’s always valuable to step back, connect in person, and ensure we’re aligned on new ways to bring data and AI solutions to market. We’re leaving inspired, recharged and excited about the next phase of our partnership with Databricks. Appreciate the time and insights from Edward Leahy and Ben Bartels. #Azure #Databricks #lakehouse #enterpriseAI Thomas Kim 📊CJ Knapp Sudhir Gullapalli Cecilia Lee C.

Proud to be part of a team that’s turning governance into enablement and driving measurable impact across the company.
