Who we are

One man and his dog - but we have the know-how you need!

Matthew Taylor CCIE #9125 (Routing and Switching) has over 30 years of experience in the deployment and hands-on implementation of massive Enterprise networks for some of the World's largest Financial, Retail and Utilities businesses. He has worked as an Engineer and Senior Manager for leading European and USA based Managed Service Providers and also worked within the in-house IT departments of Global Enterprises. He has seen what works in the real world.

He has personally written the code of software tools, and managed the successful operation of human processes, tailored to the unique demands of massive Enterprise network deployments. Most recently he lead a team that replaced Europe’s largest Financial sector network that contained over 10,000 individual sites in under 9 months. This was achieved smoothly not just because it was highly automated, but also because the human processes where simple and required minimal skills of on-site installation engineers, and could cope with common real-world problems often encountered during massive deployments such as poorly documented local infrastructure, poor mobile data network coverage and site access issues.

Now Matthew shares his expert knowledge, and provides working code and code walk-throughs with the World's networking engineers in his comprehensive and engaging courses. Because Matthew explains exactly what the code is doing and why, you can adapt it with confidence where necessary to your individual needs. He will consult to those who need additional support and guidance.
