Creating my own IT consultancy, as a mid-fifties opinionated expert, focusing on 'right-sizing' software solutions, with a strong focus on Linux and Open Source software where applicable, but being amenable to work with customers' existing solutions.
- Making the most of technology for our clients utilizing open source software, proven DevOps ideals and automated builds for reliability, security and reproducibility.
- Every company needs software, but few know enough to make smart decisions; knowing when to buy versus when to build. Often building is just a matter of knowing about free, open source solutions that can provide all you need, for no, or little, cost. Trust me, I care about this stuff, and I'm not afraid to share my opinions on the topic.
