What is SysAdmin Day for Proud IT Pros? It’s that time of year to say Thank you, SysAdmin. Here’s hoping SCCM, Intune, Hyper-V, ESX, etc., servers don’t go down on our big day!
SysAdmin Day 2018 is on Friday, 27th July. SysAdmins are System Administrators; in other words, they are IT Pros.
SysAdmin = IT Pro
I was able to raise awareness of SysAdmin Day within the organization. On this day, we arranged a corporate-level quiz program.
We tried to put a SysAdmin march-past placard in our IT Park, where more than 10K people are working.

IT Pros are part of operations teams. They love to manage servers, Cloud Servers, Cloud Services, Cloud Storage, SaaS applications, Databases, Network Environment (Firewalls, Routers, Proxy, and Switches), Desktops, Laptops, Mobile, Security, and on-prem Applications.
They are the folks who design and architect Data Centers, Applications, Network Infrastructure, Server Infrastructure, etc.
