DON'T Learn Kubernetes - Do THIS Instead

[@techwithsoleyman]

Thanks for watching and supporting! You can grab my cloud beginners guide for free linked in my bio 🎉

[@ShreyasGaneshs]

I think most people group containers and kubernetes together it’s super beneficial to learn just docker and how to spin up containers. Container orchestration is a whole nother beast that doesn’t make much sense unless u r actually working on a production environment

[@megadisneygeek]

Thank you Soleyman! I love that you didn't just say don't do this a bunch with no direction as to whats a better focus. I see so much of "don't do this" but there is direction provided on what is a better direction. I really enjoy your content!

[@techwithsoleyman]

Thanks for watching. I like to give you my full perspective and keep you focused on the right technologies to increase your success 🙏🏼

[@megadisneygeek]

@@techwithsoleyman Thank you! That's one of the reasons my wife and I looking to take your Cloud Engineer course. But first I have to find a new job so I can keep paying the bills.

[@MadalinIgnisca]

I find Kubernetez so simple, and I don't even use managed solutions. I can't see the complexity on self managed, but seen it on some managed setups.

[@shilashm5691]

linux, networking, web dev, docker, plus security == kubernetes, so anyone know these at high level can use kubernetes

[@rahuldinesh2840]

I think learning shellscript will also do a great job for cloud deployment.

[@cloudconsultant]

Leave Kubernetes until you're looking for a Senior role. By that time too you'll probably be learning it on the job.

[@techwithsoleyman]

Well said buddy

[@R055LE]

I can not tell you how many kubernetes 101 calls I've had to sit on that were full of senior devs learning for the first time. Absolutely do not wait until you're senior.

[@redzanurrahman7649]

This is correct advice. If you are just starting out, learning Kubernetes first will set you back. It will kill your motivation and drive because of its complexity. Learn the fundamentals first, then some tools like Python, Jenkins etc

[@techwithsoleyman]

Exactly!

[@anishbista4241]

I denied your point Yeah, I know k8s is complex but it doesn't mean you shouldn't learn it as a fresher it's all about PPL comfort and passion.Iam student working on cloud native and learning k8s from last year. It doesn't make me overhelmed

[@OscarHernandez-ci2lu]

Thank god that at least and so far there is one people that has the courage and capabilities to learn 'complex' stuff.

[@rehanjj]

Fair points raised. I've always felt Kubernetes is simply overkill for most customers and as you rightly point out, if you haven't even containerised your apps it's pretty much pointless.

[@IvanPopov]

Preach! On GCP Cloud Run (and sometimes Functions - depending of the type of your operations) works just fine for most projects (even beyond the MVP phases).

[@Carlos-Rodrigues]

Kubernetes is good. But .. let me tell you something in a bit more "professional" manner I have been working as an infrastructure partner for financial, industrial and european institutions. Did my clients asked for Kubernetes? No. Why ? A) too expensive to migrate the current IT solutions into a clustered containerized orchestrated blablanetes. B) too expensive to maintain. Yes yes yes you need to pay someone to maintain the whole kubernetes orchestration. AND DOCUMENT the excessive remediation actions!!!! C) Regulations ask for Resiliency. Meaning: other local country data centers with a real DRP design: switch down infrastructure on building A and switch on infrastructure on building B (data already clustered and backed up) and you send your staff over there. What if the only Kubernetes maintainer is on a vacation??? 😂 d) Technically the only guy that understands the whole Kubernetes infrastructure cannot be replicated. And money is not there to pay someone else. e) What about development test + prod ??? Do you realize how much it's difficult to maintain dev projects in time ? Kubernetes makes sense in typical big industries where the production services maintained by 200 IT guys is "easy" to implement by 5 Kubernetes super stars. What do my clients want ? a) Solutions easy to maintain:in-house and cloud b) Solutions easy to replicate c) Solutions in line with regulations and IT security frameworks d) Easy and understandable BCP/DRP's actions e) Testing solutions (VMs or docker containers) in a separate VLAN f) Easy to change service provider for core applications contracts (maintenance, implémentation etc..) Welcome to the real life, buddy 🍻

[@Maximus98245]

I still didn’t get what THIS was in the title. Was it terraform or docker or python or all of the above?

[@mostrealtutu]

"kubernetes job level trends" what, lol. all you people watching this you are probably stuck in tutorial hell and keep watching nonsense videos like this one. just make stuff and make sure your portfolio has some cool shit in it and you are able to talk about it in an interview.

[@JordanCricketMoore]

Python? Why not Go, Rust, Java? Mentioning Python at all seems like video padding, honestly. Containers are language agnostic. Bash, honestly would be more valuable than ANY of those.

[@mycricketpassion]

Our aws shop loves eks. Once complexity over its a time saver during continuous deployment of our busy development team

[@gryg666]

Just learn how to "dockerize" your app and what are related problems with it (e.g.presistent volume, centralized logging). The other stuff will depend on which platform you will use, including CI/CD process.

[@purplemonkeydishwasher5269]

Agree. I'm a network engineer and we were pushed to become cloud certified. But with only basic exposure to Python and some APIs it was to much to take in. People need to have a grasp of application design before you think about cloud or orchestration.

[@techwithsoleyman]

Exactly - I can tell you work in the industry!

[@satish1012]

We have only 2 Micro services. but still we used K8s . And it never created another POD so far there since 2 years as there is no heavy load on the application . So just for this we have developed K8 which i felt is overrated

[@coneryj]

lol... you pretty much just laid out my resume. but it's still super tough times right now. The other thing about k8s is that one of the foundational allures was being "cloud agnostic" but that really turns out to be a myth once you get lured into the bells/whistles and critical hooks of propriety surrounding infrastructure of solutions like EKS, you look around and realize just how locked in you've become.

[@pragie_the_underdohh]

Your insights are always a gem for us to master on our career path. Your Business innovations and technology inputs are thriving us to get into a cloud business models as well, but yesh I know it's all about the long run and consistency. Grateful!!

[@tsunamio7750]

You get a like. Thank you for sharing your thoughts/experience on the topic.

[@cosmochaosmaker]

If someone is not able to understand Docker, he should never touch K8.

[@tsunamio7750]

The demand is high, the skill required are high, the moat is deep. LEARN Kubernetes, then start telling the world about your knowledge, showcase it, make videos of you practicing your Kuberneties command-line skills and reach to hiring manager. Don't listen to the title of this video alone. You can't begin to enter the data engineer path without having the skills honed. However, "you need to demonstrate your skills" !!!

[@lighteringit]

Thanks for the information. You provide some great information on cloud technologies!

[@agnellogeorge]

Forget cloud , how are you managing to create such amazing videos, which software are you using for editing, how long do you take to edit your videos, how do you manage your job + a fully engaging YT channel + develop courses.

[@techwithsoleyman]

Haha love this. The simple answer is consistency for a very long time - been in tech for a decade and always had side hustles. Doing actually a few more things behind the scenes - maybe ill do a video sharing how I do it all😎

[@egi.firmani]

You're right, today's engineers only focus on the cool stuff, and forget about fundamentals

[@avlisc]

Soleyman, should I jump into your Lifetime Access package within the next 2 months or wait 6 months until I can jump into the Elite Cloud Club? Are there any upgrade options available?

[@techwithsoleyman]

I suggest life time access then you can upgrade to the elite cloud club when you are ready 😎

[@ahmedyusuf4912]

Well done sully, yes but it's also good to touch and go on Kubernetes understanding the fundamentals... But IAC is good an important

[@jesso-bn4tk]

Bro I’m a delima , engineer jobs are not permanent only fees jobs so many people fighting. Kubernetics using clients are for futures. Fraction of companies using all these . Find who is your client whether their web is in traditional system, they wanted to do micro services using kubernetices . Else these technologies or products build by big tech just for something.

[@KingRalph33]

Wow the KZbin summarize video option is really cool. Great info in the video by the way. Does just using summarize video effect creators revenue? If so, I will opt to not use it anymore.

[@KingKongHitDaBong]

[@luboskolumber5550]

Hi, working with your real world projects in your cloud mentoring means that the apps are already made with e.g. React, Node, Python.. and with your guidance we are working only on aws architecture? When it comes to Docker, do you have also projects where you doing Images of processes and then deploying to aws step by step? In other words, can i expext managing complex app and deploying to aws in your couse?

[@OscarHernandez-ci2lu]

Ok, so the point is 'not learn something because is difficult'? Kubernetes was created to solve problems, not to be easy. If you are to lazzy or too dumb to learn something, yo leave us a better path to get the job you cannot earn. But, stop encouraging other to be lazzy and dumb.

Hi, Soleyman, I just gave up a 25K diram Cloud engineer job in Abu Dhabi after 3 weeks. I never thought the process part of project had nothing to do with me. It was very challenging and frustrating.

Thank you for making this videos. I was wondering about weather i should learn Kubernetes or not. This video was very helpful for beginner like me. I have one question, i understand about learning python but what exact project needs for cloud engineer. For me, learning python sounds like daunting. Where should i focus in python to be a cloud engineer. I believe there are differences btw cloud engineer and developers for python usage.

it starts with micro service which opened the pandora box

[@tsunamio7750]

4:20 These costs come from shitty cloud service provides. Don't do cloud, kids! When you have Kubernetes, you become the cloud provider. You rent a tiny computer in all four corners of the world and you maintain them yourself. That's the point!

You learned. Ok. But did you apply your skills somewhere about what you have learned so far ?

[@blackice1455]

why the fuck no one talk of AWS ECS

[@---David---]

ECS is vendor specific, which leads to vendor lock-in. Kubernetes is based on a standard and when that standard is implemented by cloud providers, then users should be able to create cloud agnostic cluster configurations which can be deployed on any cloud provider. That's one of the major goals and purposes behind the standardization of Kubernetes.

[@JordanCricketMoore]

@@---David--- Then use Google Cloud Run? The point is that there are alternative orchestrators

[@tsunamio7750]
