Steve Traugott: UNIX Infrastructure Architect, Automated Systems Administration, Senior Systems Administrator

Steve Traugott

[an error occurred while processing this directive]

As a consulting infrastructure architect and senior systems administrator, I specialize in helping organizations save time and money using advanced UNIX and Linux automated systems administration tools and techniques. My prior clients include IBM, AT&T, Chase Manhattan, NASA, Cisco, and Netscape.

You can often find me in the #infrastructures channel on irc.infrastructures.org between the hours of 1900-0700 UTC.

I maintain Infrastructures.Org, where you'll find a description of some of the methods I use when designing, building, or migrating enterprise infrastructures.

I'm currently working on a reference implementation of a service derivatives decision market. Among other things, service derivatives traded in decision markets may offer IT organizations cleaner service models versus traditional chargeback and SLA mechanisms.

Google seems to have me pretty well-indexed:
