Welcome
Since I joined Twitter in 2010, postings on my blog have become less frequent. Over the years I’ve tried and failed to revive this blog - first, running Serendipity CMS, then Wordpress CMS and currently Jekyll, a static website generator.
As of December 2022, I’m moving away from Twitter into the Fediverse: @EdVoncken.
Migration from Wordpress to Jekyll is complete - all of my websites are now served as static content. This should improve security as well as performance.
Work
I mostly work in IT for R&D / Software Engineering organizations (in the Eindhoven, NL area) as an Open Source / Linux specialist on subjects including IT Architecture and Infrastructure, Software Configuration Management, Security, DevOps and monitoring.
I’ve been a Red Hat Certified Engineer since 2005; over the years I passed additional exams and achieved Red Hat Certified Architect (since expired); you can verify me here. I also hold a CISSP Certification, ID 113747, in Information Security.
I currently work at ASML, providing specialized tools and infrastructure for a very large (4000+) distributed software engineering team.
Play
As for hobbies: I like all kinds of stuff, including Retro Computing, motorcycling, photography, BBQ and technology in general.
