Mr John Constable

Principal Systems Adminstrator

I help look after the high performance compute infrastructure, such as the iRODS data storage platform and compute Distributed Resource Management systems.

John is a Principal System Administrator in the Informatics Support Group at the Sanger Institute.

He looks after the iRODS systems and other HPC areas and enjoys referring to himself in the third person.
