[@miscmem.6057]

Amazing video!!. You explained DevOps amazingly! I couldn't grasp the difference between a Software engineer vs a DevOps. Love your channel and content! #newsubbie 🙌🏽

[@WeLoveKtr]

Very informative video... please upload similar kind of video's

[@definty]

Thanks Sosa! I have been thinking of becoming DevOps past few weeks. Nice timing!

[@heysosathedev]

Glad I could help!

[@Tuhinzman]

Very informative video. Thank you so much for taking the time to make this video; a little suggestion from me personally background music was more splendid, Except that everything is fine

[@heysosathedev]

Thanks for the tip!

[@0ijm3409fiwrekj]

Thanks for the helpful video, you have a nice smile :)

[@nando919]

Good video, we want more 🥳🥳 let's go DevOps

[@heysosathedev]

Haha will do!!

[@cutflow2]

After three minutes in the video, I wonder if you have started a Linux playlist with a starting point for newbies, the different ways to get started with Linux, and command lines. And possibly even making the switch. And how to use the mouse less and the terminal more. This would be epic.

[@vikrantyedave453]

Nice information. Please create more Videos to cover on basics of Devops tools for beginners

[@heysosathedev]

Will do!

[@jaredbaker7782]

Sosa! Great video, I really needed that motivation and in general, a solid summary of the role. I’ve just been accepted on as an intern for a company for DevOps engineering and have like 10% foundational knowledge about it. For the six month internship, how long of studying for things such as Python, Linux, and AWS would you recommend? I know you said 30 minutes a day, but would that be enough of offline studying within six months because I do plan on and hope for a hire on opportunity but want to make sure I make the best use of my time during the internship. Any help would be appreciated!

[@cutflow2]

Can you make a video talking more about infrastructure, monitoring, automation, networking, security, and CI/CD. Are these six different job roles for a DevOps engineer? I want to choose wants right for me at my current old age ;/ and what would be the easiest, but I would like to know which one pays the most and why, what is day-to-day like for each. Etc as much info as you can provide to help us newbies choose.

[@theav.1313]

Thank you!

[@__berichh5375]

Thank you!!

[@carterpaul2688]

Excellent video

[@ankan650]

Americans are very lucky to have such a job market for DevOps, here in Switzerland you have to be an expert to even get hired for junior devops roles. Liked the content.

[@frankiepanayi]

Hey sosa, watch your KZbin videos, great content 👍🏻 Recently got an interview for junior roles in software tester and a dev ops was wondering if a software tester could potentially lead into dev ops, being as they are exposed to testing in simulated environments and using automation? Any help would be great. Thanks Frankie

[@s3renity608]

How did you land your DevOps role? Did you have professional experience with those tools? Were you promoted from within?

[@emmanueloluwayemisi]

Hi everyone please i need help to transition a Cloud-based role. I have GCP SRE, Architect etc but need a role to kick start a cloud role

[@masondarien232]

You were leaning towards AWS, but how about the Azure DevOps Engineer route?

[@shekharsingh8735]

What about folks who have experience of 5 years as storage and backup engineer. The traditional SAN and NAS boxes...any tips on transitioning.

[@Everything-yes]

i was network engineer i want to learn AWS and python but my age is 34 so can i do, now i am jobless

[@cyrillemadjo7131]

Good explanation...

[@darren537]

Thank you

[@codingevelynmiami4230]

Hello, Please do a video on CI CD. Thank you.

[@StrawberryDaiquiri6788]

I was so nervous to pursue DevOps because it seemed so intimidating, I didn't think WOC would even be in this career, but after watching you girl it has boosted my confidence to pursue it

[@theoreticalviews2939]

Hey . I'm in the same place as you as a black woman getting started in devops. Do u want to connect

[@__berichh5375]

Currently a IT training specialist and wanting to move in to the background

[@EllieMandyArt]

Love this ❤️

[@heysosathedev]

Hey friends! I get a lot of questions from people asking about how to get started in DevOps so I figured I'd make a video on it. As always, let me know if you have any questions. If you want more context into what I do within DevOps and Infrastructure Engineering, check out my previous video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/qWioaqODfbWFqtU

[@ShutterSpeedGaming]

Please make more content.

[@ayanaxhye]

Great video! I am trying to go from web development to dev ops 😔 any tips?

[@cutflow2]

sounds like its good to start off as sys admin jr, mid level sys admin, then senior sys admin, and then devops lol.

[@tanusharma3572]

Hi can you suggest where to learn linux and python for devops,or what platforms can be used to learn them if i want to change to devops, I work in the support profile but really want to switch to devops, i have taken a training on devops but i want to learn Linux and python specifically for devops interviews

[@djtk808]

Thank you so much. My career has been in networking and I want to transition to DevOps. Linux, Python and AWS, pretty straight forward advice for someone who was a bit lost for a starting point. My concern is that I'm not a developer at all. I have worked with Python and Linux in networking career, but can one really succeed in this field without any development background?

[@matsuwd-emethdaath4002]

Basic coding is all you need ( Python which you have ).👍

[@stevencoto834]

thank you, trying to piece things together on what to learn rn. My biggest problem so far is how to demonstrate my understanding of CI/CD how can show a real world example to add to my portfolio?

[@just1Commentator]

Do you use git for say deploying your portfolio website/projects to netlify or githubpages? Maybe even a cloud server?

[@shinoslefttoes9535]

hello! I was really informed with this video so thank you so much! Though im a 15-year-old sophomore and im not really sure what classes will teach me how to code, i would learn by myself but i don’t have a laptop 😕can i learn coding in college?

[@akajoshuaolanipekun]

I want to become a full stack software engineer and currently I’m learning some programming language which includes Java, python, JavaScript, react, angularjs and C sharp. Am I on the right track or I’m lost…. I need someone who can advice me on this because to be honest I don’t know the programming language to choose because I seems to like all the programming languages.

[@divineking680]

How does some one with no IT or coding background begin or become a DevOP?

[@isha2inner]

Can u help me to start my journey in Devops ? I have completed the Aws solution architect associate recently.thank you

[@anisiubasomto3626]

Please can you send out link or a platform that can help me foster my skills Linux, python and cloud.

[@birdie6853]

I love your videos 💕 Do you work with Docker/Kubernetes at your job?

[@heysosathedev]

Thank you so much! I really appreciate it :) I work a bit with Docker but I'm trying to get my team to work with Kubernetes. I'll probably try to do some self-learning on my own time. I'm actually thinking about doing a video series on it since I'm also a beginner so we'll see!

[@birdie6853]
