    The DevOps Roadmap for 2022 is available for free at devopsfordevelopers.io/roadmap
    One of the hardest things about learning is understanding how the different components work together. Using this guide, you start with a topic that interests or relates to you. At the end of the section, other related topics are shown allowing you to pick and choose your own path to DevOps mastery.

    I've seen a lot of "Day in the Life" videos, and most of them are so unrealistic, they always end up showing 90% of the time "not doing work". This is the first proper "Day in the Life" video that I've seen. Well done, great video!

    I'm studying devops for about 6 months, now I'm in the kubernetes part and it's so cool! It is really interesting all the architecture that kubernetes provide to admin pods, make network communication between them and stuff
    I'm really excited to work with it

    Amazing Video. The technical explanation of the actual work like migration and ansible vault was really helpful and amazing for gaining insights. I study through CZcams and by far this has been the best day in a life video. Other videos just show their campus cafeteria and a work time lapse. The production was professional. Looking forward for more videos.

      For sure. I think that was influenced by the client I was working for at the time. The pitfall there is getting sucked into the whirlwind and not getting your important tasks done. Having my workout scheduled a few hours later ensured I had an external force to pull me away from the desk and reevaluate priorities.
      Overall, I agree with “do the important stuff first”. In this particular instance, the important task was responding to that client.

      I believe in applying for jobs immediately for two reasons:
      1. You'll get experience interviewing, which is a must-have skill.
      2. You will have more to learn after school (a lot), so if you can get paid while you learn it: bonus
      Caveat: entry level DevOps jobs seem to be hard to come by so don't forget to look at other job titles like developer, software engineer, sysadmin, IT operations, etc... that will allow you to get paid + build DevOps experience for your next job.

    • @DevOpsForDevelopers
      @DevOpsForDevelopers  Před 3 lety +12

      I've had a lot of different jobs (but I've been around a long time, so... you know... :-P)
      Tech related jobs: dba, sysadmin, developer, network engineer, it support, helpdesk, manager, sre
      Non-tech related jobs: farmer, fork lift mechanic, electrician, nuclear engineer, telephone pbx installer/programmer, mechanic
      Why DevOps: for me, it's the ultimate challenge in combining creativity and technical skills. Every problem is unique and it challenges me to understand the problem at a deep level to fully resolve it. Doing so may require technical, people, process, or other skills.
      If I find myself bored or not challenged, it's only because I'm not paying attention to the real problem. I think at a core level, it reminds me of my youth growing up on a farm. It didn't matter what the problem was: broken tractor, busted pipelines, torn up fence, barn destroyed by tornado; we're gonna fix it. We have to, or we don't eat.

    How much software development do you do? Do you have deep knowledge with microservice development and using message brokers like RabbitMQ?
    What kind of business are you able to launch as a DevOps professional? My goal is to try to eventually have a business, but definitely need to just put food on the table for the time being. I was told its impossible to find work a junior DevOps dev, so i am trying to promote myself somehow as Mid-LEvel and using my business background and diverse responsibilities to promote my experience.
    I am a washed up software developer who lost his business in Covid and now have a bit of an uphill battle getting back onto job market as my skillsets are a little out of sync having a business for 15+ years. I do have some web developer knowledge and developed dental software for many years. I've been training in Kubernetes, AWS and trying to learn the full array of DevOps tools.

    • @DevOpsForDevelopers
      @DevOpsForDevelopers  Před 3 lety +3

      Hey man,
      Thanks for the comment!
      The amount of software dev vs. devops stuff I do varies a lot. It will swing from 100% - 0 to 0 - 100% depending on the client/job I'm working at. I've done a fair amount of microservice work with message brokers. I work a lot with tech startups and rely on message brokers to decouple systems from each other & prevent an outage in one system from taking down another.
      For a business, I find it challenging to launch a "devops" business. Devops is largely about getting to know the humans in the workflow, finding where they are struggling, and helping to automate that pain away in a manner that is consistent with the workflow, personalities, and desires of the team. For that reason, it's usually a long engagement. I don't think it's something you can really package and sell as a turnkey kit.
      I think a large part of my success has been looking for smoke, because where there is smoke, there is fire.
      /me: walks past fire. "Hey, y'all gotta fire here. Anyone gonna put it out?"
      *crickets*
      /me: "No? Ok. Anyone mind if I put it out?"
      That's led to a reputation where past co-workers, clients, and employers call me with leads, referrals and new work.
      When hired, it's typically to build/launch a new product and/or company and the scope isn't really limited to DevOps, it's more of a "make this product successful". The end result of that is doing devops stuff + writing code + working with marketing, finance, and support to make things as efficient as possible from first contact with the customer all the way through to the customer stopping use of the product/service.
      I think long term, we'll see more use of services like Kubernetes, but abstracted away so the value we provide in that role is building tools and systems that automate away the minute details of implementing that across an org. Take a look at AWS Fargate for an early preview of what that might look like.
      Best of luck to you, I feel ya when it comes to putting food on the table. Stay positive, stay focused, and hit me up if you have more questions.

      @@DevOpsForDevelopers Thanks so much for your detailed response.. I have thought maybe the realm of consulting/freelancing would be one way to operate independently. IT sounds like something like what you do maybe. Of course with the rise of remote work, working for a company is not as bad as it use to be. I am in South Carolina, BTW.. I find with traditional full-stack software dev its a double-edged sword with so much remote work being offshored (esp front-end). But, I feel the demand for local DevOps engineers is more resilient to offshoring in the remote world. And, I much prefer to work remotely.

    I have passed aws cloud practitioner certification.whats next for me ? I don't want to code I hate coding now... Despite of doing coding for the last 8 years now I want to get rid of coding. I like sharing application releases/builds to clients, building deployment on servers and server management etc. Now please suggest where should I move ...? I like to provide application support and manage operations of application, and I want to move on little bit non-technical side. what should I do next?

      Right on. I would suggest start applying for jobs: devops, sre, cloud engineering, and all other related titles. Go to meetups, hackathons, and user group meetings to meet and network with people who may need the skills you want to use.
      Be as persistent in your job search as a cat chasing a laser and don’t stop until you catch it!
      Also, get clear on “why” you want to do this. You’ll need that motivation to drive you through the times when you feel that you aren’t making progress.

    Hi ! This is a great video, thank you for sharing it.
    I have one question. It is possible for me, a guy without any experience in IT, any experience in codding and without knowing any programming language to become a devops ? At this moment i'm working at NOC department and i have like really basic theory info. If yes, can you please guide me on what steps should i follow ?
    Thank you in advance.

    • @DevOpsForDevelopers
      @DevOpsForDevelopers  Před 2 lety

      It is possible, but it is also a lot of work. A good first step is to decide which skills you'd like to build first: programming or sysadmin, then start pursuing that path.
      Working in a NOC may provide additional benefits as well: does your NOC use configuration management, infrastructure as code, or software defined networks? All of these are components of DevOps. Expanding your skills in your current role can lead to a path into DevOps.

      @@DevOpsForDevelopers Thank you for replying . Answering the first question, i'm not really into programming. I tried learning some Programming language like python, not really enjoyable for me but i heard that it's useful to know it for devops role . As a NOC i don't really dive into code or infrastructure pure actions, just restarting some jobs/nodes but in general we just monitor services health/activities and report to those how are managing them. Due this i have just some knowledge about kube, doker, jenkins, eureka, CI/CD etc etc but just theoretical.

Actually I am planning to switch my career into devops but don't know coding/programming all stuffs.. currently I am working in night shifts in BPO so I concerned a lot about my health. First of all, want to work in day shift and want to lead a normal lifestyle. Also i wanted to do certifications in high demand courses. I came to know devops one of the good career in future. As a devops engineer, what would you suggest me??? Do I need to have deep knowledges in Linux, python and Aws to become a devops engineer or basic fundamentals is enough... I don't know how to proceed as I ain't from IT background!!!!

      If you are looking for insight on whether DevOps has good work/life balance, my experience would probably deter you. 🤣
      You can anticipate working 40-ish hours per week, with occasional longer weeks to get some projects out the door, on-call rotation, etc. You should also account for some time for continuing education too, as technology is always changing and you need to keep your skills sharp to remain employable.

      Hey Aravind,
      A lot of that depends on the company you work for, but the TL;DR for your question is: yes.
      You will be on-call. There will be late night/weekend calls. There will be long days/weeks at times to hit delivery goals.
      The frequency of these events depends on the company you work for, how many co-workers are available to share the load, and the experience/expertise of those co-workers.

      I go to the gym daily, dinner out w/my wife weekly & meet w/ friends weekly. I also travel to visit clients quarterly for at least 1 week, most of the time 2 (sans pandemic lockdowns)
      It's also important to remove the "oh, he's remote" barrier in daily conversation. I make sure I'm responsive to DMs/chats and invested in quality audio & video equipment so voice & video chats are crisp, clean, and high quality. I also make sure the background behind me looks like a work environment and not like I'm laying on the couch watching TV.
