About the Reviewer

Markus Maiwald is an internet service provider, business webhoster, and domain provider. As an example, he offers agencies complete white labeling solutions for their customers (from registering a domain to deploying a webserver).

Therefore, his slogan is: I build the systems your business runs on.

Professionally, he is a consultant and systems administrator with over 15 years of Linux experience. He likes building high performance server systems and he develops usable and standard-compliant systems with focus on security.

As a true webworker 2.0, he runs his own international business with customers all over the world, from an insurance company in Europe to a web developer studio in Thailand.

This is the main reason why he was so passionate to work on this book. As a great team player and with a lot of experience in international teamwork, he brings in a great knowledge of tools such as Git.

I have to thank Bijal Patel, my project co-ordinator from Packt Publishing. I received outstanding support and had a great time.

I would also like to thank Sarah for her patience and encouragement while I finished this project.
