Enterprise Class IT services on a small business budget. Endpoint management, Domain, Web, On Prem, hybrid and cloud infrastructure, email security and deliverability, identity management, Azure/ M365 global and security administration. Private LLM builds on your own or hosted hardware. Keep your private data private.
Six ways to work together. Most clients start with one and expand once things are running.
We handle monitoring, patching, and maintenance around the clock. You get an operations function on retainer without the headcount.
start here →We support endpoints, Microsoft 365, and identity (Entra ID). The help desk is one people can actually reach. The folks who depend on the systems get fast answers.
start here →We do architecture reviews and fractional IT leadership. When a project falls apart mid-flight, we come in and fix it.
start here →We design and build GPU servers around the models you actually run. Self-hosted AI sized to your budget, not rented from someone else's roadmap.
start here →We plan the migration, move or rebuild the workloads, and do the cutover with minimal downtime. Your systems end up in the cloud without the weekend of prayers.
start here →When the cloud bill stops making sense, we move your workloads back home. Same discipline in reverse: planned, tested, and done before your users notice.
start here →I'm Dan Mueller, a senior infrastructure and cloud consultant based in the Twin Cities. When you hire me, you work with me directly. I'm the senior engineer on your account, not a handoff to a junior team. If a job needs a specialty beyond what I cover in-house, I bring in a senior engineer I trust, or route it to a firm better built for the scope. Either way, you deal with one point of contact who knows your whole stack and answers the phone.
Right now I'm consulting with Irulast, architecting Azure and Microsoft 365 security across multiple client environments and deploying local LLMs on owned hardware. Before that I was a Senior Server Engineer and Principal Enterprise Architect at Datasite (2019-2024), a global M&A AI SaaS platform, where I cut Azure spend more than $300K a year, led the data-center consolidation (closing three sites, zero downtime on the critical DNS move), and scaled Windows Virtual Desktop from a 2019 pilot to production across three continents.
Before Datasite I was Principal IT Engineer at NucleusHealth (2016-2018), running hybrid infrastructure for a medical imaging and teleradiology platform across 400+ remote sites under HIPAA, and cut annual IT spend 16% (about $400K) while holding service quality steady. At Wizmo (2013-2016), as Lead Engineer, I led the move off legacy Citrix and XenApp onto a XenServer virtual desktop platform, and during my on-call weeks I performed maintenance and upgrades across 30 different client environments.
Today I help small and mid-sized organizations get the same enterprise-grade architecture, security, and cost discipline, at a fraction of big-firm rates.
