Alan Sullivan is a Big Data Specialist with DomainDiction. On the company’s website, his biography reads that Alan is an “innovator, technologist and businessman who has been directly involved in the technology of the Internet since 1997, right at the inception of the domain name system. He built the registry systems for .biz and .us during his time with Nuestar as well as creating one of the very first registrar systems to service the emerging domain name market with Nameengine (Verisign).” Alan was nice enough to spend a few minutes with us at NamesCon 2015 answering our questions.
