[00:02] advantage when it comes to DevOps. So, let me show you the fastest transition engineer. So, you already have the hardest part, programming logic and
[00:14] problem-solving. And here's the part that you're missing. First, Linux and cloud fundamentals. You need to understand operating systems in general, cloud providers work. Once you have this, next you're going to dive into
[00:30] infrastructure as code. Infrastructure as code for you will feel very familiar because you're basically coding infrastructure instead of applications. Learning Terraform is just functions and modules, and you will pick this up very
[00:45] fast. After that, you're going to dive into CI/CD pipelines. You understand the concepts of how it works, why it's needed, because it literally runs and builds the code that you write. So, you have daily interaction with it. The next
[01:00] one is Kubernetes and containerization with Docker. Conceptually simple, operationally complex. Just 1 month of focus on how to take your Docker as application and deploy it to Kubernetes and scale it up or down should be enough
[01:16] for you to really understand practically how these technologies work. And your advantage is that you understand application architecture, APIs, scalability concerns, which are things that DevOps engineers from, let's say,
[01:30] sysadmin backgrounds struggle with. Now, there is one part that will be a little bit more challenging for you than, let's say, for systems administrators, which is monitoring, logging, incident response. But if you cover those skills,
[01:45] as well, then you're going to have an all complete, well-rounded skill set that will make you 100 times more valuable than having the traditional software engineering skills, even as a senior software engineer. So, we are
[01:59] realistically looking at just a few months of diving into those tools in the right sequence to completely upgrade your engineering skill set. And I know for a lot of you, even those few months can be difficult because of a full-time
[02:14] job or responsibilities, so you may want to compress this timeline even further, which is understandable because you want to use your time efficiently and upgrade your skills in the fast fastest, least resistant way possible, which is a valid
[02:28] resistant way possible, which is a valid concern, and that's exactly why for a short period of time we are offering free calls where we help you identify your specific gaps and create a sequential learning plan that you can
[02:43] follow. Our spots get booked out pretty fast, so make sure to grab your spot and for the call is going to be in the comments or in the bio, so make sure to
[02:55] check it out there and reserve your spot with us.
