SEEKING WORK | EU / UK-based | On-demand, targeted SRE expertise

We provide short-term (1-2 weeks), high-end SRE consulting services that solve specific operational problems in emergency or high-pressure situations. We deal with all aspects of systems engineering and SRE / DevOps processes, as well as with strategic and evaluation needs.

Our expertise is based on 30 years of hands-on technical experience in all areas of IT, but especially in designing, building and operating complex, hybrid platforms for global clients.

We usually work with clients who:

  - have urgent operational issues that need immediate outside expertise
  - are launching a new service but are not sure if it is customer-ready
  - have unstable or non-scaling systems that are impacting end-users
  - are worried about process gaps that affect service delivery quality

Examples of work we've done for clients:

  - Implementing multi-level cloud redundancy
  - Tracking down performance bottlenecks
  - Stabilisation of complex applications
  - Validation of new projects before production
  - Intelligent logging & monitoring implementations
  - Effective dashboarding and alerting
  - Tool selection & best practices

Our team has extensive experience in a wide range of SRE / DevOps / SysAdmin tools, most AWS and Azure services (at a global level), and many data processing technologies like Kafka, Spark, Storm, Solr, Elasticsearch, Redis, Hadoop, etc.

SEEKING WORK | EU/UK-based | Senior Cloud Architect / DevOPS / CloudOPS | REMOTE

I design, build and manage cloud applications, especially on AWS and Azure, but also sometimes on OpenStack. I specialise in hybrid-cloud / multi-cloud implementations for better efficiency and redundancy.

In these "interesting" times, I'm spending more and more time helping clients achieve both stability and cost savings with their cloud-based platforms.

I've also built and managed large container-based architectures using Docker, Kubernetes and OpenShift. Most of the time this is at a global deployment level.

I have extensive experience in most AWS, Azure and OpenStack services, as well as various Big Data technologies like Hadoop, Spark, Storm, Kafka, etc.

I work for clients big and small, and on both short-term and long-term engagements.

For more information, please visit: https://www.zerozerotech.co.uk/

Location: France/UK

Remote: Yes - normally all remote, but do spend time on client sites as needed

Willing to relocate: No - travel ok

Technologies: Cloud (AWS - most services, Azure), Docker/Kubernetes/OpenShift, Big Data (Spark, Storm, Hadoop family, Cassandra, Elasticsearch, Lucene, Solr), Kafka, Zookeeper, Java/Python

Resume/CV: By email only

Email: connect AT nonstopops.io

I'm a senior enterprise architect, specialising in designing and implementing complex, distributed systems that are highly performant and fault resistant.

I also do plenty of work in fixing existing systems that are in need of some help in these areas (recently: Big Data performance and tuning, AWS-based platform evaluation and refactoring, Docker/Openshift design, Cloud migration).

I am very hands-on and frequently do things like POC development, performance and tuning, etc. I also often end up leading teams for the full development lifecycle.

I presume you are talking about formulas here?

Actually, it doesn't assume that ;)

While you'll generally have a set of rows with a (more or less) consistent set of columns, the parser is capable of detecting blocks within a sheet that have to be treated differently (i.e., they go into a different "table"). This is why we are looking for beta testers - we need more of these scenarios. Care to join?

Thanks alot for the pointer; you are right, some very interesting ideas in that.

Having already tried a few products in the whole logging and monitoring space, I do find it is pretty challenging to operate here. I realise having paid solution can be a barrier ... unless there are compelling benefits, which is what I'm trying to define.

Hey, that's quite cool ... I'm checking it out. Thanks!

Thanks for the comment. It is true there is the possibility of too many permutations. I suppose the other way of approaching this is to let the tools do what they do, but export or forward on specific data that such a cross-logging/monitoring system could deal with for very specific use cases, like those I mentioned. It is these use cases I'm looking to validate.

We need beta testers, anyone interested?

NonStopOPS is a hosted service where you can quickly create data processing pipelines to do intelligent stuff with operational data ... like creating dashboards and reports from logging/monitoring data, calculating availability and other NFRs, or correlating events across multiple data streams. It is for times where sysadmins have use cases that cross the boundaries of traditional OPS tools, and where they'd otherwise have to do a bunch of manual stuff.
