datacenter.clubBorn in Istanbul, Altuğ USLU met his first computer at the age of six. A curiosity that began with BASIC on the Commodore and Amiga grew into Pascal and C++ through the PC years from the 286 to the 486.
At vocational high school he learned hardware down to the lowest layer — electronics, microcontrollers and automation — then gained his first professional experience in computer services, distribution and school IT.
He provided IT services to businesses in Bodrum, served his military service at the Signals, Electronics and Information Systems School, and founded his first hosting brand, Uslu Hosting.
He founded his own companies, Adrese and Dukqan, completed his computer programming studies and deepened his networking expertise through MikroTik training.
As co-founder of PIXAGOR he built and ran data center backbones and earned his CEH certification. In 2026 he brought this experience together in Data Center Club.
I learned to code by hand, through trial and error. Today AI does the same work in seconds. Were those years wasted? No. AI builds on what you already know; seeing what you want — and what is wrong — is still up to you.
In a clearly defined task, AI does exactly what you ask without trying to change your mind. But telling a real piece of work from an idea that merely looks good takes experience.
Combined with your knowledge and experience, AI doesn't take your job; it adds experience on top of yours. Using it only as a search engine is a grammatical error in technological literacy.

ThenNapster shook it, but music didn't die; it was reborn with Spotify and Apple Music.
“If I can't see the cash, it isn't real.”
ThenBanking went digital, then everyone joined in. The wallet moved into the phone.
“Video on the internet? Who would watch that!”
ThenYouTube arrived. We didn't give up TV — yet — but watching what we wanted felt good.
“Social media is just harmless small talk.”
ThenWe tapped “share location”; the system learned our age, place, time — even our mood.
“Streaming will kill cinema.”
ThenNetflix brought what we'd love before we searched for it. Cinema survived; stories from every corner of the world came home.
Smartphones are only as smart as their owners.
If you're looking for an off-the-shelf package, this isn't the place.
