Welcome to PhenixOps!

Introduction

Consider this website as both a source of knowledge as a showcase of my skillset. I am a experienced Linux engineer with a solid background on operating applications and websites on the Internet.

Currently i am building and expanding my infrastructure to setup my own shop.

If you run a small business and need some help on your website or Internet presence we can work something out. Just send an e-mail to tech@phenixops.net

Fun Projects

Besides my infrastructure i am working on some projects on Raspberry Pi and Arduino Linux RTL-SDR projects with a DVB stick, follow that here:

• RTL-SDR
• Piaware

My flightradar page can be found here, it is operating from a Raspberry Pi in my backyard http://radar.phenixzine.net:8080/

Insecure link yes, working on that as well but this is too much fun not to share ;-)

My background

I have a solid experience in Linux Administration and hosting Websites, basically my knowledge is everywhere between the wires and the frontend. I can work on small and large scale environments, in the cloud or on premise.

Websites are created from scratch or build with Wordpress using addons, on the background you need a database providing you with business logic. All being backed up and kept updated. A weekly task often neglected but typically something i can take responsibility for.

Getting good scores and green lights in browser windows also provides good security and ensuring customers are reached from your communication, something where a free website and domain often is limited.

Besides the technical part i am also strong on documentation and the organization of information. This includes concerns release management and project management. Making sure customer needs are met in time and according to specifications.

I like things to run save and secure while remaining available and being monitored. I have a strong operational focus combined with a curiosity for open source and the Internet in general.

Most of my experience is centered around the Linux/Apache/Mysql/PHP stack but also running JAVA applications. This can be situated on a Cloud or Virtual environment, i do all flavors. I use Open Source tools to create my platforms and share my experiences here. This also makes a lot possible on a small budget for your business or project.

In this time and age privacy and security is becoming more important, we all want our data to be safe. I am able to provide advise on how to create that with the use of tools and the right mindset.
