Jason, Todd, and Keri are eccentric enough to express their inner-geek on their license plates.

For the last three years, we have seen Solaris 10 deployments growing steadily due to client demand.

When our customers come to us with large, critical problems and we start talking technology, they are very impressed with the ZFS and DTrace technologies. Again and again we've been able to take performance-critical customer applications and within fifteen minutes narrow the problem area down to a few lines of code.

The interview is quite technical in nature, but shows that we approach things with a critical mind at OmniTI and are always on the look-out to bring new technologies to the table for our customers.

Listen to the podcast.

The new web site provides a simplified view of our talented staff and all of the work we do for our clients. Hopefully a bit of our personality shows through as well. We'll be posting more information once we've had a chance to catch our breath, and please do let us know if you notice any lingering debris we need to sweep up after our rush to the finish line.

Many thanks to all of our clients and colleagues who were gracious enough to say a little something about us. We think your words have much more meaning than our own, and we really appreciate all of the nice things you had to say.

With almost three years of service in the role of Project Manager and Senior Analyst, Dr. Ciprian Tutu has been promoted to the newly created position of Director of Solutions Delivery. In this new position, he will apply his sharp analytical skills and his experience in managing software projects and service delivery initiatives (often referred to as cat-herding) to maintain the high quality of service OmniTI is known for.

In today's Internet technology industry, finding good people is the single biggest challenge we face as an organization. OmniTI's services are built upon the highly qualified individuals who make up its staff. We are extremely pleased to have found a brilliant Ph.D. in computer science with a strong commitment to sound engineering principles and who has both the desire and skill to manage how our organization delivers our services to our clients. He really gets the big picture and I see added value from every angle.

~ Theo Schlossnagle -- OmniTI's Founder and CEO

We currently have four major service offerings around web application development, web application security, and Internet architecture design and operations. Ciprian will work with both new and existing clients of OmniTI's scalability and performance consulting as well as the architecture and infrastructure support offerings.

I enjoy crossing the line, back and forth, between business requirements and technical solutions, bridging the gap between customer goals and demands and engineering pragmatic limitations, making sure that both sides are ultimately satisfied with the solution in place

~ Ciprian Tutu, Director of Solutions Delivery.

Congratulations Ciprian!

Theo, our president and CEO, shares a few words about this big day:

We are very excited about our expansion. We anticipate significant growth in 2008, and a New York presence will allow us to hire new employees in an area rich with talent.

Don't forget that we're hiring for both our Maryland and New York offices. Come join us!

OmniTI Labs gives us a central place to share the code we've written, and we look forward to seeing the content continue to grow over the coming months and years. Maybe it will become one of the places you'll think to look first the next time you're looking for some help with your open source projects.

OmniTI Labs currently contains a variety of open source tools and libraries that may be of interest to developers using PHP, PostgreSQL, Solaris, XSLT, and OpenID. Take a look around; maybe you'll see something you like. We sure hope you do, and we hope you find it helpful.
