Summary
Johann Peyrard is a Sustaining Cloud Architect with 12+ years designing and operating high-performance computing storage and IO infrastructure, currently at Red Hat. He combines deep Unix/kernel and filesystem expertise (Lustre, GPFS, NetApp E-Series, DDN) with hands-on network and cluster troubleshooting across InfiniBand, Cisco/Brocade/Mellanox fabrics and large-scale batch schedulers. His background spans software development in C/C++/Perl/Python, system automation and policy-based configuration, plus experience responding to customer RFPs and industrializing high-availability cluster services. Previously he supported DDN storage products and led benchmarking and HA implementations at Bull, giving him a rare blend of product-facing support and low-level performance tuning. Outside work he maintains an actively developed cross-platform audio/MIDI sequencer for PC and embedded devices, reflecting sustained passion for portable, real-time software. Based in Grenoble, he pairs academic deployment tooling roots (kadeploy) with practical production support for complex HPC environments.
