How to become a DevOps Engineer - DevOps Roadmap

[@lars_rosenberg]

I'm already a DevOps engineer, I have no idea why I'm watching this lol. The content is very accurate, good job.

[@halfinney9974]

Same here, I guess we watch it to just verify our current skill-set and see whatever else we might be missing.

[@vidyasawanny5241]

Agree, Same 😃

[@DevOpsJourney]

Thank you!

[@SamDy99]

I am a System admin with ECE stream and want to move to devops. But is it true that I have to be a software engineer to become one?

[@lars_rosenberg]

@@SamDy99 no, just learn what is explained in the video and you are good to go. And you don't have to know everything, but I think it's important to understand DevOps as a methodology and understand the value of ci/cd and infrastructure as code. Tools are important, but it's usually quite easy to get familiar with them. You need a little bit of coding, but you don't have to write anything too complicated usually, so don't worry too much.

[@NinjAaaron87]

As an IT professional looking to do a bit of a career shift this was extremely helpful. Clear, concise, paced just right. Loved the vid and the content. Thanks!

[@DevOpsJourney]

Glad it was helpful! Thank you for the feedback. Looking to do more videos like this in the future.

[@cepetty]

I'm looking to transition in this field with really no experience other than know I've always been interested in IT and coding...it all feels like drinking from a fire hydrant though. I'm glad to see so many positive comments from people in the field, thank you a million times for sharing.

[@DevOpsJourney]

No problem! There is a lot to learn, and it's always changing, but if you keep at it you will land yourself a very rewarding career.

[@tebohobonganimasemola6549]

I am also now starting - how has it went for you? and what has helped you the most?

[@luis11375]

Drinking from fire hydrant is exactly right. LOL Great analogy.

[@arieheinrich3457]

1. Programming Tools - Golang, Python, PowerShell, dont go near node.js and Ruby is too old. don't just learn the language, learn how to create unit tests. Lean specifically how to run API requests using those languages. 2. Since most IDEs either support GIT out of the box (like VSCode) or via plugins/extenstion, installing the GIT Tool is almost obsolete. Would be great if you mentioned additional Repository tools like Bitbucket, GitLab, Azure Devops Repos and more. Very Good overall cover of major topics. Good job !

[@owenzmortgage8273]

got it, thanks

[@lycheemyusic]

Add Bash as well, it is esp important since linux is the most utilized OS in devops. Veryvery helpful to know both shell and bash.

[@M4V3RiCkU235]

I had no clue, how exactly is all linked in DevOps. You made it all clear in just under 15 minutes! Simply brilliant - thank you!

[@ashaank]

Managing DevOps for a software company. This content is pretty much spot on. One thing to note though is understanding cost effectiveness with infrastructure on AWS etc. It can get quite expensive/troublesome if not done right or the wrong tools are used. We had an incident when Redis was used to store a 14k line JSON response. S3 would've been best for something like that. It took down Redis in one incident.

[@sriramakrishnabattu3408]

This is an excellent compilation. It provides the complete picture of DevOps in a nut shell and helps to identify the gaps in individuals learning curve.

In the road. Let’s go. In 1 year better than today. 😉 thank you for the road map.

[@oladokunlanre8177]

Good to hear this. I also started learning too..

[@cschelin]

Good list. As a Sr DevOps Engineer with 40 years of experience, about the only thing I’d add is in Networking. The last two jobs I had used VLANs extensively. For cloud it’s not an issue but some companies still have on prem gear. Recently I had to set up bonding, vlans tagging, and bridge interfaces for an on prem KVM environment.

[@DevOpsJourney]

Much appreciated

[@TheSn4zzle]

Current SRE, I agree with most of this. Pretty accurate. For Python let me add on you should probably learn a web framework. Flask or Django are fine, I like Django but it is up to you. When you really start getting into DevOps and trying to implement it there are going to be times you will want to build simple web apps that your tools can't do (making a user intake system, simple cleanup jobs that are "too dangerous" to auto cleanup and you want dev's to handle, etc)

A lot of this is part of AWS SAA and AWS Sysops certifications. I took both and managed to end up in a devops/Fullstack role.

[@yonatandaniyel5640]

Ouch devops and full-stack , not easy role

[@0xccd]

DevOps/Full-Stack sounds like a full IT department

[@Xzireez]

@@0xccd It's just a vague title. Everyone is Fullstack in smaller companies. In reality I do mobile and cloud integration. So I setup amplify, aws app sync, smaller Ops tasks and flutter development. I also setup some pipelines, but it's gitlab related. The backend developers and architect does all the heavy CDK, access policies, routing, provisioning, fargate so on. I just have to know how it works and do smaller tasks. I have used CDK, when there is a specific policy that I needed to implement. Could be i will do more of it in the future.

[@0xccd]

@@Xzireez I have to admit it sounds challenging and interesting. Front-end is one of the things I'm missing, I've been doing Infra/Back-end dev in Serverless but not Front-end in a while

[@juanpabloaguirre5837]

I'm already devops engineer and the video is very accurate. My personal advice is to know some of most used tools but go deeper on what you prefer. I mean you can be a devops specialized on orchestrations ( go deeper with kubernetes) or specialized on monitoring ( go deeper on elastic stack or zabbix or prometheus) and so on ... We can't pretend be good to all those tools it madness.

[@DevOpsJourney]

Great advice. A lot of devops is just knowing the basic concepts so when you are assigned a task you have a starting off point to know the direction you need to move towards. As you mentioned, it's always great to be a subject matter expert on a subset of tools as well.

[@DevOpsJourney]

For those in the comments discussing @ 0:17 and node not being a programming language. Here is ChatGPTs response: There is some debate within the software development community about whether or not Node.js should be considered a programming language. Some people argue that Node.js is simply a runtime environment that executes JavaScript code, and therefore should not be considered a programming language in its own right. Others argue that Node.js is more than just a runtime environment, and includes features and functionality that are specific to Node.js and not found in JavaScript itself. These features and functionality, such as the Node.js module system and the non-blocking I/O model, can be considered part of the Node.js programming language. Ultimately, whether or not Node.js is considered a programming language depends on how you define the term "programming language." If you define it narrowly as a language that is used to write programs that can be compiled and executed directly by a computer, then Node.js may not fit this definition. However, if you define it more broadly as a language that is used to write code that can be interpreted and executed by a runtime environment, then Node.js could be considered a programming language.

Thank you for this. I am trying to rejoin my effort to complete a Cisco Devnet Associate preparatory course, and then take the cert test. This piece was very comprehensive and matches well with the understanding I have of DevOps tools and technologies.

Nice! For Cisco Devnet I think these things will be really important: Python, Git, Docker, YAML/JSON/YANG etc, TravisCI , REST APIs.

[@jgranahan]

@@DevOpsJourney yea plenty of REST and some NETCONF. It gets a bit tedious in the CBT Nuggets course. It’s using postman, Python, SDK’s to interact with what seems like a million Cisco platforms. But it does drive home the techniques!

I just graduated, managed to score a nice little job as backend. My direct boss moved me from one project to a new one (Like, I am the one who is starting it from scratch). Since my workload is relatively low, I'm in charge of both backend and database. Also, since I've no deadlines yet as is pretty early in this project, I was asked to poke around in a lab env to try different configurations in servers (Ubuntu server) that should improve our servers performance down the line. Oh, and I they sponsored me a linux + linux server course. ... am i being trained into some sort of "small" DevOps engineer?
