04 · SNS Systems — Scaffold / Research / TODO

Status: Planned · Tagline: Systems That Endure Entity: SNS Systems LLC (operating subsidiary of SnS Network Solutions Holdings LLC) Liability tier: Medium — mostly configuration/professional work; E&O matters more than premises liability Signature accent: Emerald #10B981 — see branding.html Formal brief: ../../divisions/sns-systems.md

Scaffold / Research

  • The on-prem compute layer — the clearest expression of the parent's open-source, Linux-first philosophy.
  • Services: Linux server design/admin, virtualization (Proxmox, KVM, VMware) + containers, self-hosted infra (mail, files, identity, backups), storage/NAS/SAN + DR design, Ansible automation for repeatable documented builds.
  • Boundary line: Systems = on-prem servers/OS/virtualization. Infrastructure = the wire/LAN. Cloud = off-prem compute.
  • Managed work goes to Support, not here — Systems builds, Support maintains.
  • Until active, can run as an assumed name of an existing operating sub or the parent.

TODO → Plan (do before creating milestones)

  • Define standard reference builds (hypervisor stack, backup stack, identity, monitoring)
  • Build the Ansible baseline / IaC repo for repeatable deployments
  • Pricing: project builds vs. handoff-to-Support maintenance
  • Vendor/hardware sourcing (servers, storage) + open-source stack decisions
  • Get E&O insurance quotes
  • Finalize logo from branding.html prompt

TODO → Launch (see ../../divisions/legal-structure.md)

  • Form SNS Systems LLC on INBiz (owner: Holdings LLC) · EIN · operating agreement
  • Separate business bank account
  • Bind E&O + general liability insurance

Milestones

TBD — populate once the plan above is complete.
