Meet Abe

I’m Abe Bazouie. I’ve spent more than 20 years working with Linux, cloud infrastructure, security, and production systems. I’m a senior engineer and the creator of CTRL+CHAOS, where I share what I learn from building and troubleshooting real systems.I teach the way I work: understand the fundamentals, investigate what the system is doing, and make practical decisions.
