linux, puppet, and stuff that comes along for the ride

about

Hi, I’m Ben Prescott.

For over five years I’ve been providing customer support at GitLab, having spent my career doing infrastructure engineering, largely around UNIX – initially Solaris with a bit of AIX, but mostly Linux.

Everything here is posted in a personal capacity. I’ve been self-hosting GitLab for infrastructure-as-code and version control since 2016. 2025-02
