    <content type="html"><![CDATA[ <p>Today is the last Friday of July, making it <a href="http://www.sysadminday.com/">SysAdminDay</a>, when we show appreciation for all the hardworking, oft-under-appreciated sysadmins who make our new economy hum along like a well-tuned machine.</p>
<p>Here at pingVision we have several people who serve in the sysadmin role. Our heavy lifter is Andy Lasda, who has scripted our deployments and been involved in most all of our hosting environment setups and performance tuning.</p>
<p>Andy Kirkham is another expert sysadmin in our ranks. Between the two Andys, there's no solvable problem they cannot solve. Yes, you can say "rubbish" and dismiss it as mere enthusiasm, but in this case I think I'm right.</p>
<p>;)</p>
<p>Kevin Bridges also does a fair bit of our sysadmin work and configurations. And of course Ezra Barnett Gildesgame, who is in fact doing a <a href="http://drupalcampcolorado.org/content/drupal-benchmarking-and-performance">DrupalCamp Colorado presentation</a> this weekend on performance tuning techniques for Drupal.</p>
<p>Thank you, Andy, Andy, Kevin and Ezra! And thank you to the <a href="http://rackspace.com">Rackspace Fanatical Support sysadmins</a> who've kept our servers running optimally.</p>
