Some infrastructure that I set up was recently praised as “smooth, seamless and it just works.” We infrastructure folks rarely receive praise; most people only notice us if something is broken.

This infra been operating for a year and a half with — get this — 0 minutes of unplanned down time. Yep, so far, 100% uptime.

Not bad for only costing about $1200 a month (this might seem like a lot in the consumer space, but it’s absolute peanuts in the enterprise space).
