Summary
Channing Wong is a Technology Systems Specialist with over a decade of hands-on experience modernizing infrastructure for public-sector environments. He currently leads a comprehensive overhaul—firewall and DMZ redesign, Server 2025 and Hyper-V migrations, AD/Entra integration, and a heavy push toward self-hosted observability and security (Splunk, Wazuh, Prometheus, Podman/Alma Linux). His background spans system architecture, high-performance RDBMS (Oracle), ETL/BI, and ERP integrations, giving him a rare combination of deep operations know-how and data-focused tooling. Comfortable with both legacy stacks (FreeBSD, Sun) and modern Linux/container approaches, he often chooses open-source solutions to stretch tight government budgets while keeping systems usable. Based in San Francisco, he pairs pragmatic migration planning with site-level networking experience, including WiFi and MPLS upgrades, and a knack for turning complex requirements into maintainable, auditable systems.
