[ About ]
Day by Day is Gerben Meijer’s independent Linux and open-source consultancy, founded in 2005. We help teams design, run, migrate, and troubleshoot production infrastructure: from bare metal and networking to Kubernetes, OpenStack, cloud platforms, automation, storage, and high availability.
The work is practical and hands-on. We combine architecture with implementation, root-cause analysis, migration planning, and platform operations, so decisions are tested against how systems behave in production.
See the services overview for the areas we work in, or contact Day by Day to discuss infrastructure review, troubleshooting, migration, or operational support.

THE COMPANY
Day by Day was founded in 2005 by Gerben Meijer. It is an independent Linux and open-source consultancy for production infrastructure.
The work is practical: design, migration, troubleshooting, automation, storage, networking, Kubernetes, OpenStack, and high availability. The goal is to understand the risk, choose a sound path, and implement what the platform needs.
THE WORK
Work usually starts with a platform review, migration plan, production incident, or build-out. Recent projects include Kubernetes and OpenStack operations, storage stabilisation, high-availability Linux services, DevOps automation, and managed Linux device environments.
The common thread is practical ownership: architecture that can be built, automation that can be reviewed and repeated, and handover that leaves teams with a system they understand.
