Shattered Silicon Linux Consulting Services

Shattered Silicon enables organisations to augment their Linux administration and maintenance capabilities. We can do this by leveraging the skills and experience our highly qualified Linux consultants. We are completely vendor-independent. This enables us to provide impartial consultancy and support services for most flavours of Linux. Most of our clients use CentOS, Ubuntu or Debian. We have no vested interest in the choice of platform or technology – our only interest is providing our clients with the best, most appropriate solution possible for the problem they are solving. Our expert Linux consultants are available 24/7 to help you increase performance, flexibility and business continuity of your critical Linux systems. We provide on-site Linux consulting in Europe and remote DBA consulting world-wide. Our Linux experts have consulted for some of the largest companies in a range of industry verticals. These include mobile and online advertising, commerce, fintech, banking, insurance, mobile and online gaming, social media and SaaS.

Our dedicated Linux consulting team is always standing by to help you with your requirements.

Are Our Expert Linux Consulting Services For You?

Our services are primarily aimed at companies with Linux server infrastructures that are either:

Too small to warrant employing a full time systems administrator or
Too large and complex for the existing full time systems administrators to effectively look after
Need temporary augmentation to their skills for deploying new infrastructure for a project

There are a number of telltale signs you may be experiencing. A common manifestation is an explosion in workload of your “accidental sysadmin” who no longer has enough capacity to effectively carry out their primary duties, typically software development. Other common symptoms include deteriorating system performance or increased lack of confidence in disaster recovery capabilities.

If the state of your Linux servers is causing you concern, we can almost certainly help. Contact us today!

“The work carried out was excellent. Ten times better than Percona.”

Ryley BestChief Executive Officer –

“Gordan from Shattered Silicon consulted into Transactis at a time they were in need of an expert consultant to extensively optimise their MySQL database during a key software product launch. Feedback from the client was excellent at all times and indeed he was able to provide services above and beyond their expectations. Personally Gordan was a pleasure to work and I would gladly work with him again.”

“Shattered Silicon are an absolute pleasure to work with. Their technical skills are amazing and I would rate their abilities on par with the very best in the world. It’s obvious their team goes out of their way to learn, test and benchmark the latest features and functionality. They are able to communicate complex technical issues clearly to both technical and business people. They deliver what they promise and have never missed a deadline.”

Calum ReayCEO, INT 6

“The Consultant from Shattered Silicon is an extremely knowledgeable and capable System Administrator who was key to supporting legacy systems as well as implementing new ones. They were flexible and displayed a great attitude, and I would happily work with them again.“

Simon DayGriffin Internet Head of Operations, at the time of contract

I can’t recommend Shattered Silicon highly enough! They were quick to respond and understand what we needed, knew immediately what action we needed to take and helped us apply their suggestions. They are quick to offer very detailed advice, and have been a real pleasure to work with (and will continue to work with in the future). In terms of value for money the benefit we’ve gained in just a few hours of their time has been fantastic!
