About Me

I'm Nedim — most people call me Ned. I'm a Cloud Engineer with a deep passion for Linux, DevOps, and building reliable infrastructure.

I've spent years working hands-on with AWS cloud services, containerization, server administration, and deployment automation. This blog is where I share what I've learned — practical guides, tutorials, and cheat sheets born from real-world experience.

Whether it's setting up RAID controllers, recovering hacked WordPress sites, configuring Nginx reverse proxies, or deploying containers on AWS, I write about the things I actually do in my day-to-day work.
