Built fromthe rack up.

Nick is an infrastructure architect. He writes about data centers, storage and disaster recovery, and about the networks and lighting behind live shows.

Infrastructure

Storage that survives the bad day.

Networking, virtualization, storage, backup and disaster recovery, cloud and identity. Designs and migrations, and what broke along the way.

Infrastructure posts

Live production

Networks where there is no network.

Lighting design, show networks, Art-Net and pixel mapping, and streaming from places that have no infrastructure until you bring it.

Production posts

Build

Everything before the first rack.

Server rooms, power, HVAC and structured cabling. The physical layer that decides whether everything above it works.
