Video

Thanks for the video. I'm going from IT support to cloud. This stuff is actually really cool and I look forward to studying and learning every day. So I guess that's a good sign. Looking to get into development and data engineer side of things. I'm happy to continue in a support role within the cloud to start though, like a support engineer would be great I enjoy helping users. It's so nice not having to deal with physical infrastructure. I've been dealing with it for YEARS.

I so needed to hear this Today, thanks for sharing :)

This video was awesome, well done 👏

Really drawn to DevOps. Getting my AWS CCP cert soon and then I’m going to get my Terraform Associates. Excited!🤞🏾

I will never accept being on call. As an employee, you should set your limits. People let companies decide their lives. Don't let them do that; quit and find something better.

You 🫵 my Brother 🤛 I was also blown away, running my first terraform and seeing an EC2 come up, with the ami and subnets I described !! 🤯

I want to become a Dev0ps.Could you please advise where I can start, as I have zero experience in this field

Could you put a link for your Anki notes that you took for the developer's associate?

2 cmmnts noti aw

maan, this is a good one, a new sub and a like noti

HUH? what utter mor0n still has OnCall duty in a western country? Thats what outsourcing is for. Sounds like you dont have a good support structure in place. Dont blame the cloud for this

thanks a lot for the valuable info Henry and I have a question if i am a system administrator do i study cloud engineering courses first or go to study dev ops roadmap first , thank you for the help

informative video bro keep it up

good but how about the dev stuff after all it is dev and ops

After Hearing this and learning Devops, I wasted and took wrong decision. unemployed for 2 years. Completely lost at 42. 😥😥😥😥😥

Is DevOps aka Cloud Engineering?😅

Great video! Your video should get more views. I have a few questions: If I choose AWS, which programming language should I learn? I'm a 37-year-old help desk tech aiming to transition into development or DevOps. My workplace uses Microsoft and C#. Should I stick with Azure since it's offered at my job, or should I pursue AWS? Which Azure certification would you recommend?

I have been a software engineer for over 10 years but this week I'll be starting a course in DevOps. I think at this stage of my career, learning about the infrastructure side of things will be beneficial and it seems that the industry may be moving more favourable toward infrastructure.

Is coding a must to become a cloud engineer?

Stop being negative

keep it green.

Thank you for the insights. This really helped making decisions.

great guidance! keep pushing

does devops require good coding skills?

Most of theses things sound like software engineering issues in general

Um what if your a full stack and a DevOps at once?

6:04 kill me

Thank you for this video- I am a project manager for the past 7 yrs and now transitioning into DevOps and this was a great video with excellent advise for someone getting into DevOps.

What really bothers me about DevOps is that it's not uncommon to hire a "junior engineer" with nothing to their name but an AWS cert, who is then delegated authority over seasoned and experienced engineers and administrators to build things that they don't understand. The problem with DevOps is that it's a shortcut that exists to handle widespread inexperience and incompetence. It has not been proven worthy of this purpose.

Kindly let us know what to freelance in devOps doesn't hold some weight in freelance domain?

until your company only changes infrastructure after 10pm 7 nights a week. your sleep turns to 2 hours here, 2 hours there.

yeah contribute to documentation , if doing it at work isn't enough , Jesus I'm so tired of this, second place and what you're asked to do is "yeah check out the documentation and get a feeling of what might be missing in it and what is actually done regularly by the team but not documented"

Congrats! I am a note taker, in the early stages of my studying I take notes, and review them later on.

What cloud provider should I focus on? Azure or AWS, where are the jobs ?

Great video thanks

I passed CCP exam in February 2024, and since Late April I started preparing for Developer Associate. One thing I struggle the most with is consistency. I work a non-tech role and want to switch to Cloud & Devops eventually, I hope that I become more consistent in studying rather than the bursts of studying that way I can complete this course and pass the certification exams.

Sounds like a good step forward for me being in a Kubernetes support role as learing is pretty much my second nature.

I completely agree with that reddit post at 2:35. The drive to teach yourself is one of the most crucial skills for cloud beginners. I mentor a lot of cloud beginners who and I'm always surprised when they say they need someone to hold their hands and keep them accountable. My thought is always you should be self motivated and be willing to think outside the box to be successful in this industry Thanks for the quality video :)

Thanks

I am working in good leading mnc in india.. and I got placed in 2021.. but then I got only azure devops related work like pipelines , spn secrets renewal task.. now I am completing 2.9 yrs here.. but my main job was .net dev .. now what should I do ? Should I go and continue in devops work ? Or should I go for .net role ? I feel both are time taking work.. no work life balance.. what should I do😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 I felt like going towards data analytics may be good.. but chatgpt and other saturation things in that field made it tough to get jobs after certain experience.. what should I do ! Please please please please please help me... Please....if I get good guidence I will atleast reduce my overthinking and will work.. currently I m learning azure platform and docker ... Please suggest me what should I' do.. my interest wasn't IT but due to family background and need of money I started working here.

Devops by itself is comprised of many fields. I always tell my friends in networking that they should reinvent themselves as soon as possible since the legacy network engineer is going to dissappear soon (only big organizations with private DC will have jobs for them). Devops is a good direction, but for network people you should really aim for SRE or cloud infrastructure

4:05 Could you make a video on a roadmap you would give for learning DevOps?

DevOps isn't an "entry level" job. It's where you go after you've been something like a junior developer and/or junior sysadmin moving up the career ladder. It is more of a mid-to-senior position just like how SRE isn't an entry level position either, it is where you go as you move up from a junior position. Nothing wrong with that. After all you don't get your MD and skip being a junior doctor and become a consultant or registrar either. I was doing DevOps before we called it DevOps. I was a hybrid developer and sysadmin within the company. Then we moved to cloud services rather than on-prem or self-managed data centre based servers. I was a senior system administrator and then a Solution Architect for a large blue chip company when we reorganised the titles and we renamed positions to the more modern titles of SRE and DevOps Engineer, etc. So the reality is a DevOps Engineer/SRE is the "new" title of a Senior System's Administrator/Integration Specialist with production ownership and responsibilities, etc. Not things you would put on a junior employee straight out of college.

+ Plus some language barriers for non Native english speakers here in the UK

Devops isn't an entry level position, same as cyber security. Hence no entry level jobs

If you could share your Anki cards that would be awesome :)

Infrastrucre and cloud engineers and system admins should do that role. NOT developers. I think faang companies do not understand the differences and want 1 man to wear 3 hates
