3 people have recommended Carlos Hernandez
"Carlos is a fantastic systems administrator. For an example, Carlos installed a Load Balancer in a High Availability Production system. It was critical that he did this on a weekend and that nobody was affected with connection problems. He did his work on a Sunday and everything was planned and implemented perfectly. Carlos was very professional and taught us the technology as he was developing the plan. It is a true pleasure to work with Carlos and I'm planning to do so for a long time to come."
