DevOps Training

Let me know if you still are searching

Yesss! Now I’m looking at learning SQL so if you know any rTesources/help let me know

You've said you are a recent graduate right? Look up consultant companies such as Sparta, FDM. They will put you on a strict contract but will open many doors for you into DevOps. But if you want to self-learn instead and do it your own way W3Sschools is a good beginner-friendly resource for SQL.

Hi, I work as a Devops Engineer at one of the largest consultancies in the UK.

If you upskill yourself in the following, any employer will be eager to take you:

- Kubernetes
- Docker
- Pipeline tools (e.g. Jenkins, Gitlab CI/CD)
- Git
- Python
- AWS
- Terraform

Try to get the AWS Certified Cloud Practitioner, along with the Terraform Associate level Certification. They are a good starting point for cloud computing and employers do value it. Don't go down the route of becoming an 'expert' in Python / other programming languages as you're then entering software development.

Do not do SQL as you likely won't use it.

Wow thats amazing and thank you for this! I am currently learning python. The 8 week course was pretty hectic as it jam packed a lot of topics within the small time frame. I just don't know how to keep learning after this course if that makes sense? Any resources you recommend? also do I need to build a portfolio of the things I've learnt and applied? I'm just confused on how to upskill and then know when I'm ready to apply for a data role because I have the right experience.

I tried applying for an AWS course by the Princes trust and could never get in after the multiple attempts
After working as a business development associate within a tech company, I came across colleagues in the data science/analyst field. It was interesting to see some of the work they produced.

I'm currently stuck between a data analyst and a software engineering career for the future. I don't think I have a full understanding of the difference between the two. But I would appreciate any resources you can recommend for me to learn from.

Udemy should be a good starting point for courses on AWS. The certified cloud practitioner is a good starting point since it's pretty much all theory. It's good to know python but don't get too focused on developing software as you wouldn't be doing that as a DevOps engineer.

A Data analyst works out how to process data from multiple streams (e.g. databases, user inputs from websites, sensors), which may involve the use of Python and out of the box software. Software Development / Engineering is creating software from scratch.

I spent a year working as a Data Scientist. Whilst I enjoyed it since it was mostly python, I wouldn't go down that route since it's all statistics and for me personally DevOps is a more exciting pathway.

Ahh thank you so much! Will definitely look into that. Yeah the data stuff can get really boring. I just want to be able to draw a road map and understand how i Dan build from there. Once I learn through udemy then what? I find it so hard getting into courses I just give up. Maybe once I’ve build the skills and gain more understanding I could get a place but honestly I’m getting so tired of hitting rock bottom again and again

I’ve just on on Amazon than you can book amazon cloud exams. I guess once I learn enough through udemy and other resources, is this something I could do after to hopefully move into an entry role?
Sorry for the numerous questions. I’d appreciate if you could help me with a roadmap if possible and topics that need learning?

These are some very good DevOps practice projects, I am currently working as a DevOps Eng and it is very broad and exciting. In terms of Python, we write a lot of it for quick scripts as well as bash script and PowerShell script (because were ancient and still use windows servers). But you will definitely be doing quite a bit of bash scripting. And since DevOps focuses on delivery and deployment, you will work on pushing apps to a Cloud Provider, this is where AWS comes in. The Cloud practitioner is pretty good to have however it mainly focuses on theory, so you might want to create an account and play around with AWS yourself.

Selenium/ docker-compose: set several OS

I am training on a project on which I want to run a test (for now) on 3 nodes that I have configured thanks to the docker compose provided by the SeleniumHQ repository here: https://github.com/SeleniumHQ/docker-selenium/blob/trunk/docker-compose-v3.yml

The problem is that I would also like to configure a different OS on each node. For example: first firefox/windows node, second chrome node, linux... Is it possible to do this with docker-compose?

Hi does anyone know where I can get DevOps training from (London)? I've been searching everywhere, I am a recent Business graduate and would like to take the DevOps career after a lot of researching and thinking. Perhaps free training or relatively cheap (but legit)? I'm finding it hard to find jobs that ask for little-no experience and I am stressing out because I have been unemployed since first year of university, hence I simply cannot afford these expensive courses. I would really appreciate advice on where to apply for job in DevOps or where I can get training course from. thanks
