About
Welcome to www.michaelanthoni.com. This blog is authored by none other then myself, Michael Anthoni, and dedicated to Information Technology enthusiasts. I am an IT enthusiast and accomplished systems administrator with many years of experience in the IT industries. I hold a number of highly regarded and industry standard certifications from Comptia and Microsoft.
I am a systems administrator, plain and simple. I manage everything related to IT from the datacenters to the office, internet connectivity and networking, web sites and email systems, development to production, servers to desktops, security and storage, and all the technology in between. I have a very broad overall knowledge of most facets of IT and in-depth knowledge of the inner workings of many related technologies. I have a preference towards open source linux based systems, although I still hold Microsoft in high regard, which some might find slightly unusual. I must admit I am not a programmer, although I can code in a variety of languages when the need arises.
I work for an internet/application service provider. We are a Microsoft shop and partner, however, we do utilize many open source technologies. This company shall remain anonymous. Any posts, articles, statements, opinions, and comments I make here on my personal blog are exclusively my own and do not necessarily reflect the company I work for or any of its employees with the exception of myself.
Other hobbies not related to IT technology include black and white photography, traveling, hiking, independent movies, and poker.
