## The Company :chart_with_upwards_trend:

Federated Computer is proudly located in Colorado Springs in the great state of Colorado under the majestic heights of Pikes Peak. We embrace the values of those who went before us here for full choice, freedom and respect for the people and places around us.

## The Team :rainbow:

Federated Computer was founded by pioneers in cloud computing who worked side-by-side at Joyent building one of the first and most consequential cloud companies.

- David Young: One of cloud-computing's pioneers. Founder and CEO of Joyent, Inc. Brought node.js, containers, public cloud, programmable datacenters, and cloud operating systems first to market. He also started an ice cream company ("Honeymoon Ice Cream") which may have been the toughest thing he's ever done in business.

Federated is fully committed to open source as a movement, way of life, and company mission. We have been at the forefront of open-sourcing projects such as node.js, technologies for storage services, containers, cloud operating systems, and much more.
