U01OVERVIEW

IT Consulting — Open-Source Infrastructure

Enterprise-grade infrastructure, without the enterprise invoice.

TechPlayground designs, migrates, and maintains business systems on open-source foundations — the same tools we run in our own lab, hardened for production and priced for reality.

U02WHY OPEN SOURCE

The short version

Same reliability, none of the licensing tax.

Proxmox instead of a VMware quote. TrueNAS instead of a SAN contract. Monitoring that doesn’t bill per host. Every recommendation here is tested on my own home lab first, before it ever touches a client’s production system.
