About Silver Linings
Our Approach
When things go to shit, we show up calm, competent, and make it better.
No panic. No upselling. No buzzwords.
We've been doing infrastructure work for over 15 years—email servers, DNS configurations, multi-server environments, custom software, security hardening. We've seen systems break in every way imaginable, and we've fixed them.
Most of our work is fixing things that are on fire right now. The rest is building systems that won't catch fire later.
Experience
Over a decade and a half of infrastructure work:
- Email infrastructure (Postfix, Dovecot, anti-spam, webmail)
- DNS management (BIND, authoritative and recursive)
- Database administration (PostgreSQL, MySQL, SQLite)
- Firewall configuration (nftables, iptables, pfsense)
- Virtualization (Proxmox VE, KVM)
- Network design and VLAN segmentation
- Custom software (Perl, Python, Bash, REST APIs)
- Security incident response and forensics
We've handled everything from single-server setups to multi-datacenter deployments. We know what breaks at 2am and how to prevent it.
Location
Silver Linings, LLC is a Kansas-based company. We work remotely with clients across the United States.
Most projects are remote work—SSH access, clear communication, and fixed deliverables. For local Kansas clients, on-site consulting is available.
We keep it simple: one LLC, one focus, no unnecessary overhead. You're working with people who actually do the work, not account managers.
