Specialising in Open-Source Solutions for Small Business

Why open-source?

Open-source software can cut licensing costs, reduce vendor lock-in, and deliver reliable, secure platforms tailored to your business. I help you choose, deploy, and maintain the right tools—without adding complexity.

Lower ongoing costs No vendor lock-in Auditable security Flexible & portable

Popular solutions I deploy

  • Servers & Virtualisation: Proxmox, oVirt/KVM, Docker/Podman, TrueNAS/ZFS
  • Networking & Security: pfSense/OPNsense, WireGuard, VLANs, VPNs
  • Collaboration: Nextcloud (files, calendar, contacts), OnlyOffice/LibreOffice
  • Monitoring & Backups: Zabbix, Grafana/Prometheus, Borg/Restic

Prefer a hybrid? I integrate open-source with Microsoft 365 and Windows Server where it makes sense.
