I am a UNIX systems administrator with years of experience working in major enterprise environments on both project and support workloads. I specialise in Solaris versions 8 – 10, with proficiency in enterprise Linux variants. All environments I have worked in have implemented the ITIL framework for change / release and incident / problem management.
I have experience in all areas of the Solaris system life-cycle including design, build and ongoing maintenance. The technology I work with has changed a lot in the ten years I have been in the business and staying ahead of the curve is a challenge I enjoy.
My current focus is to enable my customers to reduce their infrastructure footprint and better utilise available resources through virtualisation technologies such as zones, logical domains, and software hypervisors.
