I'm a senior sysadmin for a ~300 person fintech shop, managing a mix of Windows/Linux servers in AWS and a fleet of around 200 macOS/Windows laptops f...
Spot on about the discipline being the linchpin. That's the hard part that no automation tool can solve for you. Your workflow is exactly how I'd sta...
