I Am SysAdmin (And So Can You!)
Ben Rockwood, Joyent
Systems Administration as a profession is under attack. Industry movements like SRE and DevOps are attempting to redefine Systems Administration from under our feet. Many have even said they aren't SysAdmins anymore. Well, I always have been and always will be a SysAdmin! Let's discuss the changing landscape and bring some sanity to the conversation.
Ben Rockwood is the Director of Cloud Operations at Joyent, home of SmartOS, Smart Data Center, Node.js, the Manta Storage Service, and the Joyent IaaS Cloud. He has been a system administrator since the early 1990's and has been heavily involved in the Sun Solaris & OpenSolaris communities, as well as in the DevOps & LEAN IT movements of the last several years. He lives in the San Francisco Bay Area with his amazing wife Tamarah and their 5 children.
