SYSTEM ADMINISTRATION A system administrator, or "sysadmin," is a person who is responsible for the upkeep, configuration, and reliable operation of computer systems, especially multi-user computers such as servers. The system administrator seeks to ensure that the uptime, performance, resources, and security of the computers meet the needs of the users, without exceeding the budget. To meet these needs a system administrator may acquire, install, or upgrade computer components and software; automate routine tasks; write computer programs; troubleshoot; train and/or supervise staff; and provide technical support. Generally, no courses beyond standard high school diploma requirements are needed to be admitted into these information and communication technologies. Most graduates enter the workforce as a system administrator or sysadmin. New employment opportunities
