About SUDO ODT

SUDO ODT is focused on one thing: making Linux infrastructure predictable. Not by adding complexity, but by putting structure around the parts that fail most often — backups, monitoring, recovery, and operational hygiene.

Operator-first

Work is delivered the way infrastructure teams actually run systems: clear scope, controlled changes, and outputs you can verify.

Evidence-ready

When audits or investor due diligence show up, the difference is documentation and proof. SUDO ODT helps you build defensible technical evidence without overengineering.

Productized delivery

Scripts and tooling are designed to be repeatable, auditable, and maintainable — not one-off fixes. You keep control and avoid vendor lock-in.

Services — A Map from Risk to Stability

Think of each service as a checkpoint on an infrastructure map. You start with uncertainty or risk, move through a controlled intervention, and arrive at a stable, well‑defined state.

Tier A — Automation Kits

Ready-made • One-time

Production-ready scripts and tooling you deploy once and keep. Each kit includes logging, failure detection, setup guides, and verifiable outputs. No recurring fees — you own everything.

Multiple unknowns
Full readiness check
Operational confidence
Flagship Bundle

Operational Readiness Kit

You have multiple gaps — backups are unclear, system state is undocumented, and crashed processes go unnoticed. Fixing them one by one is slow and disconnected. You need a single starting point that covers the fundamentals.

The Operational Readiness Kit bundles the three core automation kits into one coherent package. You get a system health snapshot, backup confidence check, and process recovery validation — delivered together with a combined risk report.

  • Infrastructure Snapshot & Security Baseline
  • Backup Automation & Retention Kit
  • Process Watchdog & Auto-Recovery

Uncertain backups
Backup automation
Recoverable data

Backup Automation & Retention Kit

You assume backups exist, but you've never had real confidence in them. They might run sometimes, fail silently other times, or exist without anyone knowing how to restore from them. This uncertainty creates constant background stress — every update, disk issue, or incident feels riskier than it should.

This kit delivers automated backup scripts with retention policies, failure detection, logging, and a verification report you can review. You get clarity on what is backed up, how often, how long it is retained, and how recovery works. The outcome is not just backups, but confidence.

Includes: Backup scripts with scheduling, retention policy config templates, failure-detection logging, restore verification guide, HTML status report.

Silent failures
Monitoring scripts
Early alerts

Nagios Monitoring Kit

Things usually work — until they don't. A process dies, a container stops responding, disk fills up, or load spikes quietly in the background. You only find out after users complain or something is already broken. That gap between failure and discovery is where most frustration lives.

This kit provides ready-made Nagios check scripts and configuration templates for the services and resources that actually impact availability. Instead of generic noise, you get early, meaningful alerts — and the ability to act before issues escalate.

Includes: Nagios check plugins, service/resource config templates, alert threshold presets, integration guide, sample notification setup.

Unknown exposure
Snapshot & baseline
Clear risk picture

Infrastructure Snapshot & Security Baseline

You know the system has grown organically. Decisions were made under pressure, changes piled up, and no one has a full picture anymore. Disk usage, SSH access, backups, and hardening are all assumed to be "good enough" — but no one can say for sure.

This kit turns assumptions into facts. Run the snapshot scripts to produce a concrete, point-in-time view of your infrastructure state — covering system inventory, security configuration, open ports, user access, and resource utilization. You get an HTML risk report and a clear starting point instead of vague concern.

Includes: System inventory scripts, security baseline checks (SSH, firewall, users, permissions), HTML risk snapshot report, remediation checklist.

Service crashes
Watchdog & recovery
Self‑recovery

Process Watchdog & Auto-Recovery

A critical service crashes at the worst possible time. Someone has to notice, log in, restart it, and hope it holds. Over time, these small incidents add stress and erode confidence in the system's reliability.

This kit introduces controlled self-recovery. Processes are monitored continuously, restarted automatically when safe, and escalated only when intervention is actually required. Every restart and failure is logged with timestamps, exit codes, and recovery outcomes.

Includes: Watchdog scripts with configurable thresholds, auto-restart logic, escalation rules, structured logging, recovery verification report.

€39–€79Config: €150–€300

Tier B — Technical Readiness & Assurance

Professional • Fixed scope

Hands-on technical work with defined deliverables. Scope is agreed before work begins, and you receive documentation and evidence you can present to auditors, investors, or leadership.

Audit pressure
Readiness work
Defensible controls

Technical Readiness for SOC / Security Audits

You are told you need to be "SOC‑ready" or "ISO‑ready", but translating that into concrete technical work is frustrating. Controls exist, but evidence is scattered, undocumented, or dependent on tribal knowledge. This usually surfaces late — when deadlines or investors are already involved.

I help you close that gap. Technical controls are reviewed, evidence is prepared, and weak spots are made visible early. You gain clarity on what is missing and avoid last‑minute panic or unnecessary overengineering. Deliverables include a controls matrix, evidence inventory, and gap analysis report.

Output: Controls-to-evidence mapping, gap analysis report, remediation priority list, audit-ready documentation package.

Tier C — Infrastructure Advisory & Implementation

Advisory • Recurring / Project

Ongoing guidance or project-based implementation for teams that need a second pair of experienced eyes on infrastructure decisions, or want monitoring deployed and configured end-to-end.

No infra lead
Advisory sessions
Informed decisions

Fractional Infrastructure Advisor

Your team makes infrastructure decisions without a dedicated specialist. Changes go unreviewed, architecture evolves reactively, and there's no one to flag risks before they become incidents.

I act as your on-demand infrastructure advisor — reviewing changes, advising on architecture, and helping prioritize what matters. Monthly retainer, no on-call by default, and you get structured recommendations instead of ad-hoc guessing.

Format: Monthly retainer (2–6h), async reviews, architecture recommendations, risk flagging.

€200–€700 / month2–6h
No monitoring stack
Full deployment
Production monitoring

Monitoring Foundation Deployment

You know you need monitoring, but deploying and configuring a full stack — server setup, agent rollout, check configuration, alert routing — is a project in itself. The Nagios Monitoring Kit gives you the scripts, but you need someone to build the foundation.

I deploy and configure a complete Nagios monitoring stack tailored to your environment. You get a working system with checks, alerts, and dashboards — not a half-finished install you have to figure out yourself.

Deliverables: Nagios server deployment, agent configuration, host/service checks, alert routing, handover documentation.

How It Works

Engagements follow a clear progression. We establish context first, then scope the work, deliver reliably, and hand over documentation so you keep full control.

1
Discovery & Context

We discuss your company, your infrastructure, the issues you’re dealing with, and the direction you want to take. The goal is to understand what is happening today and what you’re trying to achieve long‑term.

2
Scope & Recommendation

Based on that context, I recommend what fits your environment — what matters, what doesn’t, and where the highest risk reduction comes from. You get a clear scope and fixed pricing before work begins.

3
Delivery

The agreed work is implemented or delivered. For longer engagements, progress is visible as we go, with controlled changes and no surprises.

4
Handover & Next Steps

You receive documentation, reports, and a clear understanding of what is now in place. If further improvements make sense, they’re discussed transparently — never pushed.
