My place of employment is in a transition from start-up to an established small/medium business. The transition impacts all levels of the organization. I experience the good and bad of this change from my position as a system administrator in the IT department.
We manage around 300 pieces of hardware and approximately 50 virtual machines not including desktops. Management of this equipment is a big part of my day. How does the company's growth coincide with management of our IT infrastructure? What about the pros and cons between Windows and Linux? Or open source versus closed source? I have introduced many big topics in two paragraphs. I think about these big picture items quite a bit but I never write down my thoughts.
