ADMStaff is a group of students from the Department of Computer Science at the University of Bologna. We experiment with and deepen our knowledge of operating systems and IT infrastructure management. Since 1994, under the guidance of Prof. Renzo Davoli, we have carried on a tradition: **services run by students, for students**. All the services we provide are _open source_ and are driven by the passion and commitment of our members.
## What we do
Our goal is to experiment with and put into practice what we love: system administration, web development, security, virtualization, IoT, and automation. We manage real infrastructure, keep services running, and learn by doing.
The university provides us with a physical space at Via Mura Anteo Zamboni 7, public IPs, and a dedicated domain where we can work and experiment “without limits”.
In particular, we provide:
- **ADM Wiki**: Our technical documentation and guides for using our services. [Visit the Wiki](/wiki/adm.wiki/)
- **Hosting services**: We offer web hosting, databases, and other services for student and personal projects.
- **sasso**: A VPS service for students and department members. [Learn more about sasso](https://sasso.students.cs.unibo.it)
- **Peer-to-peer workshops**: Workshops open to students where we help them learn tools such as Shell, Vim, Git, GitHub, and CI/CD. [All the materials used are available here](https://github.com/cartabinaria/lab)
- **Linux Installation Party**: Periodic events where we help students install Linux on their personal computers.
## What we use to run our infrastructure
We use open-source technologies such as Linux, Proxmox, Docker, Ansible, Git/Forgejo, PostgreSQL, Caddy, ZFS, TrueNAS, and Netbox. These tools help us build and maintain a solid, scalable infrastructure while continuously learning new skills.
## Join us
Were looking for curious and motivated students. Your experience level doesnt matter: what counts is the desire to learn and get involved. Drop by the lab or check out our [events](/events).
