We are Open Source...

All of these service offerings are backed by one-click installation of software available on Last Bastion Network.

While we've a strong commercial preference for our RPM-Linux systems (and those offered by Red Hat, Novell, and Oracle), we've many years expertise consulting around other Linux and Unix flavours, particularly Sun Solaris and HP-UX. Our service offering is absolutely vendor agnostic - we don't even use this as a vehicle to upsell our own BastionLinux™.

The size of the matter...

While much of our client base is Tier-1 corporate and governmental, we offer the same level of service excellence to small organisations on a day to day basis. We are also available in a sub-contractor capacity to any software or services vendor who needs solid open systems expertise.
