Techopedia’s Description of Systems Administration

A systems administrator, similar to a stage manager, performs many duties in a company.  They may plan the architecture, build your infrastructure, deploy the applications, troubleshoot issues, work with customers (internal/external), perform vendor management, etc. Similar to the roles needed to ensure a play is ready for a performance to ensure that all goes well during execution.

Systems administrators often play key roles in preventing or mitigating the effects of all kinds of computing incidents.  Setting zones of segregation, access levels, ensuring up-to-date patches are applied and password encryption are some of the technical ways systems administrators could help.  Staying in tune with current best practices, industry trends and escalating appropriately when needed also lessen the effects and result in good systems administration.
