Infrastructure Development
CurrentCurrently:Projects regarding infrastructure like storage, virtualization. Working on an "exit vmware" strategy. We want to start by exit vSAN and build a new local storage infrastucture.Recently built a VSAAS (video surveillance as a service) solution for 30.000 cameras using servers filled with Nvidia GPUs and 7 petabytes when built out. It's a scale out solution so we can expand it as it grows.Looking into saving money from cloud stroage like Azure etc by delivering object storage(S3 based) locally.Years ago: Going all in on VMware vSAN, building a hyper-converged infrastructure.Delivering infrastructure for projects like Scan and Pay solution, automated (fancy robots) system from Swisslog Autostore.Many many time ago:(Netapp) Storage Manager:- Design/management of NetApp(SAN, metrocluster, snapvault, OpsMan, Balance).- Performance optimization and support to hosts such as Windows/AIX/ESX/Linux/SQL servers.- Proactive maintenance.- Capacity planning, monitoring and management.- Vendor contact, scheduling support, maintenance, status meetings, road maps, etc- 3,5 petabytes of raw disk space on 3583 spindles.As listed above, currently my primary work are our storage infrastructure with a little detour now and then into other areas(fx. a proof of concept test of surface tablets for use in our warehouses).I plan new installations and coordinate installations with the vendors, daily maintenance, debugging, helping server administrators configuring and tuning their systems. Monitor performance and space capacity and do capacity planning. When I have the time, I am looking at VMware and a bit of powershell programming(at the moment to automate jobs and extract statistics).A long time ago:- Designing and implementing Cisco wireless networking in our office building and warehouses, with NAC for internet access to guests.- Building and implementing Linux as a standard server/service, although this was cut short because of changing priorities.
