Sander van Vugt
Technical Linux trainer
I'm a technical Linux trainer, authorized to deliver courses for Red Hat, SUSE and Ubuntu.
Specialized in High Availability and Linux performance issues.
Up to date I have completed 62 books on Linux related topics, including best sellers such as Red Hat RHCE® / RHCSA™ 7 Cert Guide (2015), Beginning the Linux Command Line (2008) and Red Hat 6 Administration (2013).
Also, I am the author of over 20 Linux related video courses, published by Pearson Education - Pearson IT Certification and I provide live training at the O'reilly platform.
As a trainer I believe it is important to stay in touch with reality, and that's why I have a select number of consultancy customers as well, which I help in realizing their Linux solutions.
