SINCE 2005

NAME

headnode - reliable systems engineering

SYNOPSIS

headnode [systems | networking | clusters | cloud]

DESCRIPTION

For more than 20 years, we have built and operated reliable, secure infrastructure across operating systems and vendors: Linux and the BSDs, Windows when needed, and equipment from all major network vendors. We build server infrastructure across bare metal, virtual machines, and cloud platforms: requirements determine the technology, not the vendor. Open source is our default; proprietary systems are used when requirements justify them.

Reliability and security come from deliberate design: lean systems, clear security boundaries, small attack surfaces, actionable monitoring, and regularly tested recovery. Cloud where it fits; self-hosted and bare metal where it does not. Cloud Hostage Rescue if you need it.

The right tool for the job. No black boxes. No bullshit.
