I think an interesting video topic would be "How i approach learning something new".
The practical steps in learning something like ansible, K8 etc.
Will jot this idea down
Great vid bro!
I respectfully have to disagree with you. I would not recommend CompTIA A+ at all. Sure, learn the material but donât waste your time taking those two tests. You can get a Help Desk job with any kind of IT experience so i would do a mini project and getting something better like Net+ or Sec+. The CCNA is a GREAT certification and the cloud networking is still built off of the fundamentals of on-prem networks. Most large companies are Cisco shops so you might as well go with the standard.
AZ-104 and AWS SAA are not entry level certs although they are both very good (AWS is even better). Definitely agree with you here tho.
Network Engineer. $125k. A+, CCNA, CCNP, AZ-900, AZ-104, among other certs. Just my thoughts.
Thanks so much for sharing!
Hey mate đ The main reason I suggested Net+ over CCNA is because Net+ is more general than CCNA. Imo Net+ sets you up better for a Cloud Networking Cert (if you want to pursue it, AZ-104 and AWS SAA is still my recommendation) as a good portion of the CCNA material has some tailoring towards their products, which you realistically arenât going to use in a Cloud role. To add to my point, weâre starting to see the emerging role of âCloud Network Engineerâ.
If you want to be a Network Engineer on-prem, absolutely take CCNA. My audience is mainly Cloud/DevOps so I need to be somewhat bias in my videos towards those engineering roles.
I neither disagree or agree with your comment but appreciate your points :)
@@techtoby_ I can understand that so I agree with your Net+ preference over CCNA. It really does depend on your audience so I see your point of view. Thank you for sharing. Iâm actually trying to get a cloud engineer role so thanks for any advice that youâre sharing. It all helps.
Hi Toby, I want to get into the path of cloud security, I have knowledge of
cybersecurity, hacking and programming with python, I have never worked
in IT, my plan is to start with aws partitioner, and then continue with
solution arch and then sec, do you think I could get into some work? My
doubt, is if I have to do some SOC path (blue team) or directly I go for
cloud, and the last doubt is if I need to do comptia sec+ (I have the
knowledge from other courses, but I can't afford the price of the
certification for the moment) or with aws partitioner is it ok? Thank
you very much for your time.
Hey Mate, you roadmap sounds ok but I think you will still benefit from a SOC or another related role like help desk, sysadmin etc. Going straight to Cloud Security isnât impossible, but particularly difficult without experience as itâs a specialised role of Cloud Engineering
As someone with no experience in tech, i'm interested in becoming a dev ops engineer, i'm not sure whether to get the comptia + cert first and then try get a helpdesk job or should I just learn the dev ops tech stack straightaway, get the relevant certs as you mentioned and build projects etc?
To be honest some of the tooling and knowledge for devops can also be gained by working on a help desk.
For example, when I worked on a help desk one way I progressed was learning to code with Powershell, which youâd use in an Azure DevOps role. I still think for non experienced help desk is the best bet as it can propel you to greater heights. No experience trying to land a Junior DevOps role isnât impossible, but it will take more time as youâre competing with graduates, bootcampers and experienced juniors.
@techtoby_ yeah bro itâs just I donât want to waste time and money on getting the Comptia cert and then still struggle to get a help desk job as thereâs no guarantee, when I could of just spent the time/money learning the tech stack I need to become a devops engineer.
Study for Comptia and still learn DevOps stack. Learning is never a waste of time
@techtoby_ Thanks for the advice bro. đđŸ
Hey Techboy, really nice video ! I was wondering if I could help you with Best Quality Editing in your videos better than your Editor with good pricing and also make a highly engaging Thumbnail which will help your videos to reach to a wider audience ? Pls let me know what do you think ?
dm me on instagram
To get into tech do i need a computer science degree or related field. Is really necessary
No itâs not necessary
Hey bro, I was asking if you do mentorship
No I donât. We have a lot of people in my discord though that are always on hand to offer advice
