45Drives hasn't sent me any hardware. I still think they're neat.


Let's talk about 45Drives, why I like their open source Cockpit modules, as well as their tutorials and documentation about open source projects.

I think it's rare to have a corporation care this much about open source. From my outsider view as someone who has never been sent anything from 45Drives, I think it's refreshing. And I want to talk about it!

This video was not sponsored, 45Drives has not only (to date) not sent me any hardware, but we've had no business dealings at all: no money changing hands, no free trips to see their factory, nothing like that. Again, this is as of filming: can't predict the future! 😀

My Company (in Berlin, Germany) is Hiring

Hello D* - in case you or someone you know is looking for a job in either of the following two positions here in Berlin, Germany: * DevOps/SRE (Hadoop, Python, Spark, Grafana, InfluxDB, MongoDB, Scylla, virtualization, Ansible, and so on and so on) * System Administrator (both Debian- and Redhat families, Python, virtualization, wiki and git and so on, monitoring and alarming, backups, small local DC, no network management (routers, switches, firewalls), some offsite stuff at customer installations, and so on )

Goodies: interesting but not over-the-top levels of complexity, you get to play with interesting technologies, international team (English is business language), free fruit and veggies, admin your own notebook (you can install Linux if you like), small company ( < 30) but due to the ownership structure of the company you can get into a corporate pension plan if you want, and the pay check is totally on time every month.
