I’m software guy in upstate NY. I’ve been working heavily with Amazon Web Services for over 8 years. I’ve been posting about my experiences in these things, to help others solve common problems.  I’ve joined HP as part of the acquisition of Eucalyptus Systems and work remotely for them. I recommend checking out our cloud infrastructure software. You can start with the Open Source version.

I also manage several open source projects, some related to AWS. To talk to me about those, contact me at dkavanagh@gmail.com.

This blog was named in honor of the 1985 movie Spies Like Us.

I’ll blog about whatever strikes me at the moment. The views expressed here are my own and not of my employer.
