Those who understand the cloud only as an IT topic have already lost. Many companies want to move their IT into the cloud, but how does that actually work?

5 years VSHN – The DevOps Company. We can hardly believe that it has been 5 years since we founded VSHN. Our first 5 years were fantastic and it is hard to find words for the experiences we made during that time.

VSHN goes to Vancouver – Part 1: Currently Daniel, Manuel, and I are working from Vancouver. Therefore I want to tell you a bit about why we are here and then give you a glimpse into life in Canada. VSHN grew a lot since we started. We went from one customer to over 350. With the number of customers, their requirements and the number of managed systems grew as well, and with all of that the amount of work we have to do during the night.

I have been an IT geek for around 20 years, programming open source as a hobby and doing Unix/Linux system admin as a profession. VSHN is an opportunity to fuse my passion with my experience, fueled with the expertise of my team mates. I am starting in the Sirius squad, taking care of operative system and container platform management.
