For organizing the DevOps team building despite all the different wishes we had :) Well done!

Thanks Tsvet, Ivan Yordanov, Marin Tashkov (and everyone else involved) for handling the never ending communication, planning and execution of the CloudFlare to SiteGround migrations!

Thank you for working on all the strange and complex mass deployment tasks I’ve had during the year – mod_php deployments, global changes to PHP conf, disabling ioncube, changing duplicate domains, etc.

P.S. There will be more such requests in future – we are just starting :D

Thanks for finding the problem with UltraFast PHP and opcache and saving us weeks of checking crashes of per-user Apache processes.

Thanks for adding Lua to Nginx, optimizing Captcha stuff, debugging per-user Apache issues, making the CDN PoC.

Thanks for taking some of the most complicated tasks and digging deep into some really weird code/stuff/shit in order to implement some of the things we had to do. Thanks for diging deep into the Lua Nginx.

Thank you and your team for all the great work done on Terraforming the CDN project. Big thanks for the Locust load testing setup as well.

Thanks for the Avatar Web interface :) As Marin said – it eases our lives.

Thanks for closing all the bugs and doing a big part of the Avalon project maintenance!

Thank you for regular sanity checks related to things I want to be implemented. Also thanks for the technical guidance (I think this is a big thanks from the whole Avalon team).

Thanks for all the newua support work done during the year. Especially for supporting the webmail setup and testing the new SiteGround Apps Installer.

Thank you for your work related to the CDN project and the central SFTP project. I can actually sleep better at night :)

For handling all the enterprise clients with such ease and satisfying them 24/7/365. You guys rock :)

For handling all the crazy requirements of the Avalon abuse types and supporting us all the way.

Thank you for all the amazing work related to launching those Avalon automatic abuse types. This was an adventure and at the same time really crazy – especially being in the middle of it all. Great project management skills, debugging of edge case and maintenance of the whole thing.

For being a mediator. For knowing when to speed up and when to hit the brakes.

For finding the time and courage to go to conferences and present while at the same time build and maintain the hosting infrastructures for our enterprise clients.
