Hi, I'm Robert. I'm a Linux Engineer, open source enthusiast and a self-hosting geek. Most of the time I work in Ops and focus on infrastructure and deployment automation. On my private blog [thegeeklab.de](https://thegeeklab.de/) I write about everything that comes to my mind, but mainly about topics from the Linux and open source world.

My Linux journey began almost 10 years ago, for more than half of them maintaining and managing Linux servers in professional environments is my daily business. I have worked with Red Hat Enterprise Linux in corporate environments and got used to it. I also personally prefer RPM-based distributions and therefore also use Feorda and after the restructuring of CentOS I switched to Rocky Linux on my servers.

The Schwarz IT is the central IT service provider of the Schwarz Group where the main customers are the two retail divisions Lidl and Kaufland. During my work as part of the Linux Server team, one challenge was to design a test-driven infrastructure environment using Ansible and Ansible Tower for more than 4.000 Linux servers in three different data centers to replace the existing Puppet configuration management.
