About Fuzzy Logic

Fuzzy Logic is based in Seattle, Washington, and serves clients worldwide, assisting development and operations teams in leveraging the power of the latest technologies in virtualization, server administration, communication, and deployment to deliver solid products that are efficient, faster to market, and customer-friendly.
Our clients operate in diverse fields such as digital media, data analytics, healthcare, social networking, and banking; what they have in common is the need for fast deploy times, smooth automation, and secure, performant servers at a reasonable cost.
Fuzzy Logic founder Lee Whalen has been a high performance sysadmin for over a decade, beginning as a collegiate server manager and email/DNS administrator. In a parallel universe, he’s performed, recorded, and toured as a professional bassist for artists in Seattle, New York, and Boston. If you want to talk jazz, funk, or a completely different kind of ‘gig’, he always enjoys a good distraction.”

Services

As Linux systems administration experts, as well as proponents of the drive to automate software delivery and infrastructure most recently called ‘DevOps,’ Fuzzy Logic is able to dive into your organization and help you achieve your goals fast. Whether you’re creating a new product and want to get the infrastructure right from the start, or you have a product hitting the market without adequate backups and bandwidth, we can step in to source, set up, and automate the resources your product needs to be successful in the marketplace, as well as shape your onsite team to carry that success forward, all without overloading your time or budget.

Buzzwords like ‘lean startup,’ ‘continuous delivery,’ or ‘DevOps’ don’t mean a thing unless your software team, IT organization, and management know how (and when) to implement them.

New Ideas, Not New Employees

Need fresh blood without bleeding talent? We can do that.
DevOps Process Consulting from Fuzzy Logic infuses your team with the expertise and experience they need to speed up product delivery, make customers happy, and increase sales while reducing both OpEx and CapEx. We do this by evaluating your needs, implementing the right technologies and processes like automated deployment, continuous delivery, and operations/developer cooperation, then embedding these virtues into your team, sharpening the skills of employees you’ve already invested in.
After all, a successful company doesn’t get to the next level with fancier hardware, magic software, robotic coders, or super scripting geniuses, it gets there with clear thinking and a better use of resources.
”More”, whether that’s more people, more time, or even more money, doesn’t always create value.
Let Fuzzy Logic’s DevOps Process Consulting help you use “Less”: less time, less capital expenditure, lower operating expenses, and fewer complaints from customers and employees.
Less is definitely more.

Linux Systems Administration

::Snappy home page graph::
Sysadmins love automation, but systems administration doesn’t get done automatically. Even with a snappy-sounding set of tools (Chef, Puppet, Nginx, Unicorn), a sysadmin needs to be experienced and versatile to evaluate, troubleshoot, and resolve issues with complex systems.

Migration without Following the Herd

Legacy blues? We can help you with those.
Whether you want to migrate a Windows environment to Linux-based production and development, or move from a fully managed, externally hosted product to internally managed Linux/Openstack environment, Fuzzy Logic will create a bespoke solution that will augment your product delivery goals and business needs. Our experience with multiple flavors of configuration management gives us the ability to help you rock your migration and realize significant OpEx/CapEx savings in the process.
Fuzzy Logic has extensive experience with Puppet, Chef, Ansible, and Salt configuration-management platforms, with resounding client success migrating to and from Amazon EC2/VPC, Rackspace Public Cloud, on-premises Openstack from ‘Havana’ up to the latest ‘Mitaka,’ and even VMWare ESX 5.x. And if you’re looking for help with Azure, Digital Ocean, or any other major public cloud providers, we have the knowledge and know-how to get your migration moving fast and clean.
Our background includes all flavors of Linux. If your stack runs on any flavor of Linux––RedHat, CentOS, Debian, Ubuntu––or an even more exotic Unix, like OpenBSD or FreeBSD, we can help you realize the performance and temporal gains you’re searching for.
Or, you could run with the herd. Wherever they’re going.

Network Management

::Snappy home page graph::
Infrastructure is so basic that sometimes it gets overlooked in the rush to production. Fuzzy Logic can help your team design and manage the right solution––physical or cloud––including remote administration, virtualization, and automation, without ignoring the security elephant in the room.
