2017-2021

IT Manager

Ghidini Pietro Bosco S.p.A.

In November 2017 I became the IT Manager of Ghidini Pietro Bosco S.p.A., I started by decommissioning the network of obsolete endpoints and the mixed environment of thinclients and multi-brand IT systems defining an IT standard for the company and the production plants, standard that today allows the company to satisfy in no time every IT project.

I designed and created a new Datacenter, air-conditioned, scalable and virtualized on which the systems and services for the company and its factories are hosted. In addition, for the Datacenter I designed an innovative UPS system downstream of the electricity network that can keep the room operational with a range of 8 hours before proceeding to a programmed automatic shutdown of the systems and subsequent restart of the same at re-entry of the power grid.

To support the Datacenter and guarantee the company’s operations, I designed the installation of a Diesel Generator Group with a 48-hour autonomy. I designed the new network infrastructure redefining the entire structured cabling now obsolete, the new servers and their subsystems also programming a new naming convention for the identification of each device in the system. I designed a new highly scalable, reliable and automated storage and backup system.

I was responsible for the design and implementation of the MPLS fiber optic circuit for the connection of the headquarters of Brozzo di Marcheno with the production branch of Ponte Caffaro.

I created an ideal solution for the Windows-based production facility IoT of which a Case Study was published by Praim. In the hyperconvergence vision of the systems I designed and installed the new Datacenter at the headquarters and designed a new closed-loop fiber optic network for the headquarters from which all services and systems will be provided also for the remote branch Ghidini Aluminium Srl in addition to the new VoIP telephone system for both companies.

In 2012 I develop SFS, a file system created ad-hoc for the Cloud Storage platform that born later on in 2013.

In 3 months since its launch, Suyara acquired 38000 users by developing a data exchange traffic equal to 2PB (Petabyte).

In 2015 I developed the Suyara Supergate webserver with the aim of increasing the performance of large data exchange to and from the Suyara network and increasing its security through end to end data encryption.

The same year, ORACLE published a case study of the platform.
