L'autore

Stephane Jourdan is a passionate infrastructure engineer, enthusiastic entrepreneur, zealous trainer and continuous learner, working on innovative infrastructures since the early 2000s. He focuses equally on tools and culture, in environments as different as startups, online audio/video media, e-commerce or semi-conductors. The common point between all those experiences: success comes with rigor, technical repeatability, communication and shared team culture. He co-founded a infrastructure automation consultancy (GreenAlto.com), a web radio (PhauneRadio.com), a container/serverless platform for developers (SquareScale.com), or a sound design studio (Tarabust.com).

When Stephane isn't starting or contributing to new open-source projects, he's usually found hiking in remote places with his camera.

After being graduated from Centrale Marseille (engineering school) I joined the startup "Interface Technologies" in 1997 and I started my carrer as a C developer on Solaris, in the travel industry.

Around 2000 we started to create a hotel booking engine: Reservit (www.reservit.com). Currently Reservit is one of the leaders in France, Europe and Québec, with thousands of bookings a day, and connections to booking.com, Expedia, Venere and more. My main role is to take care of the infrastructure: design, choice of solutions, support/troubleshooting, management of a small sysadmin team. However with my dual competence dev/sysadmin, I am always also involved in dev critical decisions and troubleshooting.

I worked with Stephane between 2008 and 2010, and we were able a build a complete redundant production system with only open source solutions. In the meantime, I also contributed to the pfsense project (www.pfsense.org) as a developer.

Starting from 2011, we started using puppet to deploy a few hundred VM's on top of XenServer. Puppet helps us to deploy and maintain quickly homogeneous and secured Ubuntu VM's, with opensource technologies (haproxy, apache/mod_security, php, jboss, tomcat/jetty, percona clusters, rsyslog servers, ntp, bind, postfix, nagios, snort, openvas, elasticsearch and more). All infrastructure deployments and configs are controlled by puppet, and the complete code is in a git repository shared between sysadmins. Even our monitoring servers (Nagios) are 100% controlled by puppet. With this approach, puppet is one of the keys of our PCI-DSS compliance. We also use puppet for our internal services and Ubuntu workstations.
