← WorkServer management & cloud

Servers and cloud you do not have to think about.

I set up and look after Linux servers and AWS environments, with patching, monitoring and deployments automated so that they do not depend on anyone remembering them.

What I can help with

Linux server management

Setup, automated patching and hardening, for a single server or a whole fleet.

AWS architecture

Environments designed to be reliable and scalable, without more moving parts than you need.

Automated deployments

Docker and CI/CD pipelines with automated tests and rollback, so that releasing is a non-event.

Monitoring and alerting

Real-time alerts and dashboards, so that you hear about problems before your customers do.

Cloud costs

Tracking and predicting your spending, with budget alerts and concrete savings.

  • Nobody is quite sure when your servers were last patched.
  • Deploying is a stressful, manual job that only one person can do.
  • You find out about outages from your customers.
  • Your cloud bill keeps growing and nobody can explain why.
  • Automated monitoring

    Real-time alerting for deployed products, with dashboards and notification rules.

  • AWS cost management

    Tracking and predicting cloud spending, with budget alerts and savings recommendations.

  • Docker deployment automation

    Continuous delivery of containers, with automated testing and rollback.

  • AWS API integration platform

    An extensible platform for managed services, with secure authentication and rate limiting.
