The how of it

I have been working with Linux solutions since 1997. During this journey, I have adapted business development models & methods to overcome mindsets and perceived risks of Linux solutions for enterprises.

How we face these challenges, can only be learnt, by experience.
Trying to describe what I do, is what this site is about...

Development

Any Developer will tell you, with passion and a bit of experience under your belt, the art of coding ceases to be a chore, and extends beyond into the realm of poetry.

System Engineering

Increasingly important, is the need to adapt faster. Getting things to work right now, and down its lifespan. Stuff like Performance Engineering, Reliability Design, Security Profiling, Integrations

As the saying goes, "a carpenter is only as good as his tools"... My tools of choice are those from the GNU | Linux | Open Source solution stack. Built, tested and maintained by an ever growing community worldwide. Some of these incredible tools are part of that kit.

The What of IT

    Web portals, getting CMS engines to behave well, leveraging Linux knowledge to help the enterprises gain those vital edges. Things like tweaking web infrastructure, improving website load times from 2 seconds to approximately 750 milliseconds.

    eBrainPool, a concept takes root

    A unique take on distributed computing. It enables its users to discover and run software from any device around them. Auto creates its own network in the absence of usual network devices. It can isolate an application and separate out its core & display components, allowing for distributed usage of any software on its running platform.
