About Pedro

Is your current infrastructure a cost center or a strategic asset?


I help companies and operators regain full control over their technology. In an environment marked by abusive license increases (Broadcom/VMware) and the opacity of public cloud costs, I design high-performance Sovereign Cloud architectures that reduce vendor lock-in and maximize profit margins.

How do I add value to your project?

**Broadcom Exit & Private Cloud**: Migration of critical VMware environments to enterprise open-source solutions (Proxmox/KVM). Reduction of OPEX without sacrificing stability or scalability.



**Carrier-Grade Networking**: Design and implementation of BGP multihoming architectures, LIR/RIPE resource management (ASN and IPv4), and IP transit optimization.



**Network Acceleration with VPP/DPDK**: Implementation of ultra-high-performance SDN (Software Defined Networking). Wire-speed packet processing on standard x86 hardware, ideal for low-latency and high-concurrency environments.


Typical Projects and Deliverables:

**Custom Private Cloud Deployment**: Audit, design, and implementation of redundant private clouds with distributed storage.



**Operator Independence (Multihoming)**: Configuration of BGP sessions with multiple providers to ensure 99.99% uptime.



**Network Node Optimization**: Replacement of expensive proprietary hardware with programmable SDN solutions.



**Integral LIR Management**: Processing of registrations with the CNMC and asset management in RIPE for companies that decide to manage their own network.


Let's talk if you're looking for infrastructure designed by engineering, not marketing. My approach is not just to make the system work, but for you to be the absolute owner of every bit and every euro invested in your technology stack.
