Introducing myself

As the title said, I’ll use this post to introduce myself to the Xen Community Blog: I’m a 25 years old networking engineer student (just one semester left!) and I’m also a Linux geek. I’m from Chile, and I met Xen about a year ago. Since then I’ve been studying about it and, obviously, working with it. I’m working as a Network and Security Administrator at Coorditel.

Right now I’m finishing a “virtualization project” that aims a 8 to 1 server consolidation. It’s been nice to work with Xen, and I can say that we are the first chilean enterprise that uses virtualization in its data center.

I hope my growing experience could be useful to the community. Experience that will be blogged here and also in my own blog 🙂
