An agile consultancy with deep roots in infrastructure automation and the open-source community.
S & S Consulting Group was founded by Jerald Sheets, a seasoned IT professional with over 20 years of experience in systems administration, infrastructure automation, and DevOps consulting. What began as a passion for solving complex infrastructure challenges has grown into a trusted consultancy serving organizations of all sizes.
As a Puppet Certified Professional (certified in both 2014 and 2018), Jerald has spent years at the forefront of configuration management — designing, deploying, and scaling Puppet infrastructure from hundreds to tens of thousands of nodes. This real-world experience informs every engagement we take on.
We're deeply committed to the open-source community. As active supporters of Vox Pupuli — the collaborative Puppet community modules group — and contributors to the OpenVox project, we believe in the power of community-driven development to shape the future of infrastructure automation.
Our philosophy is simple: deliver expert, honest consulting that solves real problems. We're not interested in selling you tools you don't need. We assess your environment, identify your pain points, and build solutions that work for your organization — whether that's a full-scale Puppet Enterprise deployment, a migration to OpenVox, or a DevOps transformation.
