Hi @TravisMedia, Thanks for all your Tech contents. They have really helped me. I have a concern. Intro: I am a computer science final year student. I started the journey of DevOps Engineering early this year. I have mastered a couple of devOps Tools. I have no working experience neither a proper CV. What advice do you have for me ?
I don’t like to comment on videos , but as a developer I have never seen this kind of clean and understandable explanation. Thanks for your efforts. A lot of things have just clicked after this video)) subscribing
Hi Travis, I have been following your content and guides for a few months now. Your Terraform tutorial was my first steps into IaC. It inspired me to follow through on a few projects on terraform. Today I got a phone call from a very good company offering me a place on their DevOps programme. I have no developer background and have worked in IT support for 18 months after starting my IT career in my 30s. Your content is inspirational and relevant. Thank you so much.
@@estelaaletse5919 Linux was a big one they were looking for. Since starting the job terraform is very important and git also. 75% of my time so far has been on terraform. Familiarity with the command line, Linux/AWS/Azure all important. Really just having a general interest and passion for cloud work seems to have gotten me the offer as technically speaking I am behind the curve.
Awesome summary of what needs to be done... no beating around the bush... no self advertising... just clear road path... thanks a ton Travis...appreciate your efforts.
You forgot one very important aspect. Communication with lots of different people. As DevOps guy, you need to be able to communicate with almost every part of the organization. Especially if you are working in a larger project with lots of teams and people.
I love this channel. The man is so honest. He doesn’t try to jerk off his audience with feel good nonsense, e.g. “…become an info security expert and make six figures in a month.”
10 Important Skills Should Have as a DevOps Engineer * Git * Linux * Python * AWS * Docker & KUbernetes * Terraform and Also CLoudFormation * Ansible * Jenkins * Monitoring Tool * Operations And Agile Development
I for one did not knew Kubernetes, Jenkin, Ansible and only a but about git version control, I still got accepted and learned these things while I worked in the company so it's good to have the majority of skills but you don't need to know all of them before applying to a job in DevOps engineer position
I'm trying the zero to DevOps route since I could get a role at a company interested in developing their own DevOps. I'm three months into it now and I can't say whether it's been wise or not lol atm, I am taking a toll from ALWAYS having to learn something new. But then again, such is the industry on a whole. The worst part was having to switch tools midway because of costs and having to deal with the fact that I have to relearn some stuff and kind of unutilise some of what I had learned. I have fun and most of all a lot of help from the Devs, which allows me to focus more on the ops side of things. I wish I had a better senior presence, though
Building a DevOps mindset in a traditional team is extra tough without experience in an established DevOps environment, because you need the clout and people skills to drive change in a team as well; good luck...
Thank you so much for this break down. I took notes thorough your video, and as I was going, I realized that I'm almost a DevOps engineer now at my current company and had no idea. I just need some certs and more time on some certain things and I could make this work. Your video really simplified what seemed like a mountain of things to overcome and figure out. Im going to go out and buy a whiteboard now lol.
Notes for skill part: 1.Version control 2.Linux 3.Coding 4.agile development 5.operations 6.docker/kubernetes 7.Infrastructure as code 8.ansible 9.jenkins 10.Monitoring
It's impressive to present things concisely, in a so comprehensive manner, that after watching that video I was already able to put puzzles together and imagine how those tools are chained with each other. Even though some of the terms I encountered for the first time. I started a course on devops one month ago, my prior experience is that I had been working with python over the past couple of months, but quickly realised one programming language is no longer enough. Then I started doing some research what fields of IT interest me the most, I directed my attention towards data analysis/devops, traditional way of starting as a junior developer, creating websites feels just boring to me, I did some projects in my free time to get an idea of how it works together, but didn't feel fulfilled at the end at all. I'd rather see websites as a mean to an end, not the goal of my work itself. Plus, I think supply exceeds demand and wages for junior developers don't differ much from the one I got in my current job (automotive industry). There's indeed quite a lot to assimilate, feels overwhelming at times, but a prospect of having a job allowing me to make a decent living, doing stuff I consider fun on a daily basis, and having, to some extent, my future secured drives me.
Hello. You still studying? Did you started any course? I am thinking to get into this but I don't know where to start. Me as a person I like learning 1 to 1 with someone and not by myself. I was wondering maybe you can teach me something that you already know. Thanks! Have a good day!
Developer with an interest in devops here. Have to say... Tech tubers are making technical education far more accessible than conventional education ever would. Thanks to all of you.
It's not easier, the focus is just on more fields with less dedication to each which will be more helpful in the long run if you don't want to be stuck as developer or operator in the same type of companies every time. DevOps have more varied skills.
I got interested in DevOps as a non-developer (business analyst) mainly through the combination of working at a company that had really inefficient relationships between operations and software development, and separately, building out a homelab and getting to really enjoy learning Linux, automation, scripting, system admin, and networking. Basically accidentally learned that DevOps was a thing that combined several of my interests, looking forward to this journey!
The pause after "there is also a scrum master..." Had me rolling. 😂 The scrum master truly is one of the people of all time. 😅 I've been working as a DevOps engineer for a little over 2 years and the things mentioned in this video relate very closely to my experience thus far. Great video. :)
First of all welcome to all the new and Restarting their Career.. I have enjoyed your session Travis.. Very clear and to the point.. Yes this is only the tip of the DevOps journey. BIG thing as in any business…Learn the business, processes and Teams.. This will make your life easier on a new job.. Working with teams that have standardized processes is awesome.. but not there mostly..
Thanks for the insight. I do most of these things for my own projects until you got to Kubernetes. It is good to know what skills I need to work on. I also appreciated the overview of working within a team. I imagine working with a group of people toward the same goal would really elevate the learning process.
As an Ops guy spent more time adopting Linux and work as an independent contractor. I've looked at some of the negative comments here... unfounded as they are it shows just how ignorant of the road map / tech skills stack that is required! Yes difficult to get into the space. But for me your post is 100% accurate. With 23 years of experience I've worked with Win and Open Source lately which mirrors your comment re cloud. Linux is the net and given this matches what you need to add to repertoire . Brilliant video sure to subscribe to someone who speaks my language 👍🏽
do not skip 'web development' skills Unless you already have other software engineering skills (and performed them in a job) because I haven't seen anyone go self taught ---> Dev Ops role without clearly having a job or major project history building/working on things
Trying to learn DevOps via Tech world with Nana's bootcamp, coming from OPS side, this video is awesome. As I learn, devops usually automate their selves out of a job to do the next thing, because theres always gonna be a next thing. Coding for DevOps are more of a infrastructure side of things rather than application logic. this vide is awesome i hope more similar will be released in the future.
Thank you Travis! That was a lot of wonderful information. It was nice hear all the tech term broke down into understandable steps. You describe things very well.
very useful video , i am hr manager in france and need to understand the difference between developper and devops for the hiring process, this video explains pretty well the difference
Ok so I have absolutely NO background in tech of any kind. I’m starting school this quarter for network engineering, with the end goal being devops. Videos like this make me more and more confident and excited. Thank you!
Hey Travis, thumbs up for the video, a lot of great information and you are a great presenter too. I got say it’s crazy that 170+ thousand have watched but only 5,3 thousand have given a thumbs up for the video. This is the second of your content I have watched and your stuff is good. All the best 🎉
17:27 I actually got straight to DevOps like job (not implicitly stated), so im working on small Django project + getting to know the tools of the trade. Yes i have basics but any real projects on my back Wondering why i didnt have neither Docker&K8S nor VM but all other responsibilities are within this reach
Thanks a lot for this amazing content! I'm currently 41 and decided to become a DevOps. I've worked for 5 years as an IT support specialist and I already have good basics in programming. How long will it take me to be a qualified DevOps?
I am 41 too and switched from QA testing to DevOps about 5 years ago. I would suggest getting the AWS DevOps Pro Cert and the training leading to that would get you very far. Also, it is a great cert to have on your LinkedIn for recruiters ;)
I guess I'm in group 3. I jave no experience in IT. I literally jist decided thst i want a career as a Devops engineer. I am brand spanking new to all of this.
Interesting. Good video. I didn't make a conscious effort to learn Linux. But, funny enough, because developing in Windows (despite WSL) was such a hit and miss experience and practically ALL solutions on the Internet are Linux-based, I decided to move my personal computer to Linux and I've never looked back (for developing). It's just so much better working in the same environment your work will also work in. I've been learning all this stuff over the last couple of years and I'm so far from being an expert. But, it is also so much fun. I have a higher goal to produce a PaaS. I'd suggest to anyone who wants to learn anything, present yourself with a challenge you can relate to. Don't learn for the sake of learning, but rather to help you solve a particular problem. You'll learn the fastest. You'll become a sponge for the knowledge.
Hi Travis, I am 40+ years old. I worked as a test engineer (or leader) in some companies before. But I know most of the skills your mentioned because I am also interested in DevOps. Do you think it's a good idea to switch my career from testing to devops at this age? 😀
By training I’m a full-stack oriented developer but have learned so much about CI/CD and love the process of making that connection! Even at the very base level version control through Git should be a must… surprisingly I’ve ran into developers that have been in their jobs for 5-8 years and don’t know how to use Git surprisingly
@@phucnguyen0110 if your working on local projects there’s no need to learn Git right away, but when working with a team everyone appreciates when a developer knows how to use Git properly regardless of which ever online repository service you use. Git will always come in handy :)
I started my journey 3 months ago and edureka have made me understand alot I'm confused about even though I'm still confused but I ma still following my road map and I wish to get a mentor
Hello Travis, I want to express my sincere gratitude for creating this video. It has truly inspired me to continue my learning journey and maintain consistency in my efforts. Your explanation of various tools, even though I may not be proficient in them yet, has provided me with valuable knowledge on how to manage them effectively. Your teaching style is simple and concise, making it accessible to anyone, regardless of their level of experience. Thanks to your video, I feel excited to embark on this journey and learn more. I've subscribed for more of your content, and I eagerly anticipate what else you have in store. Thank you once again for your invaluable contribution.
Amazing video. Please accept a small correction, ELK and Splunk are logging tools and not monitoring Monitoring has tools like Prometheus, thanos, zabbix and more
Then you also have the infrastructure and systems engineers who have been working cloud infrastructure deployment and hybrid migrations from on-premises and private datacenters and now want to learn to automate a great deal of it. This is great content!
Agile is not a subset of Scrum - Scrum is an Agile framework, so it´s the other way around :) Everything else was so helpful for me as Scrum Master with no dev background, thank you :)
Best way to learn and to advance is through practice. I don't think there are shortcuts in transitioning to DevOps and you still need a decent computing background if you want to start from scratch with both Dev and Ops practices.
I'm in Cybersecurity. I'm a security analyst and under paid. I'm not sure if I wanna continue in Cybersecurity due to how hard it is getting a job in it. I was looking at devops and just want to get a pay bump and make 55-60k a year and then work my way up into a six figure career. I want something I can learn in everyday and make a career. Where I'm at now I just look at emails all day long and mark them an attack or safe. I've learned different attacks they do but that's about it. Nothing real technical or cool just boring emails.
In modern world it looks like people have forgotten that DevOps meant to be a bridge between Devs and Operations teams, and modern DevOps engineers are slowly became new Ops. So there is no more dev and ops with devops between them, it is more like there are only devs and devops, and operations teams are not existent. So some of the tasks devops supposed to do is now done by developers(aws setups and etc.) and all of the tasks operations supposed to do are thrown at devops(monitoring, on-calls, etc.).
Because 1. It will break at some point 2. You’ll need to automate the next thing on the list as the company continues moving forward 3. And who else will be expected to know and do everything there 😅 I worked for a company before where we jumped from contract to contract with the goal of automating ourself out of each of them. The work kept coming.
Very good overview. I was hired as a Platform Engineer (same thing except I write the apps that run on the infra too) three years ago. I had to learn every technology you mentioned on the job (besides Ansible).
great video! I know networking, Ansible, network automation with python and Linux, based on your information and clear explanation I think I should go for the rest of the skills and try to become a devops engineer.
Very cool! I'm actually pushing in production any of my big project for the first time, it has to be very scalable so I move on AWS, and I learnt so much since I finish the web dev part and start de devOps part. Terraform looks awesome. Btw what do you do all the day long at work as a devOps? I'm curious because I only see that like a few step, create config, CI/CD and deploy, and then you're done for a long time approximately, so basically do you become a Web dev for example when your devOps work is finished?
hi, you shortly talked about this in the last part But If you had to Start from beginning with no front end/full stack dev experience ; Would you go into Devops with the 10 steps below or start with Front/fullstack dev? Also, how long would this take if you went full time with the 10 steps & to apply for jobs with no Experience? 2 or 3 months?
Hey. I think the best answer is just getting familiar with a little bit of everything and then choosing what you think is cool for you. You think webdev is cool? Then focus on that first. You think building clusters of Linux webservers is cool? Begin with that. And if you don't have any experience in any mentioned field, I would say you need something around 12-18 months of learning to apply for a Junior DevOps Engineer. Of course you may become an intern somewhere, but usually it takes something around it. I have few colleagues who changed their jobs to IT and became software Devs, and they said they got their first jobs after that amount of time. The fastest one was 7 months, but that was just one case.
Ok First of all. You sound as kool as the back side of the pillow lol! Second of all, you have explained this infrastructure of a Dev ops career to me better than a mother's milk nurtures a baby!(roll with it). Lastly, I'm subscribing and going to devour your videos to help me pick whether I want to pursue Dev Ops, Cloud admin, Cyber security or some Linux admin(red hat government route)! Thank you! God bless!
Good stuff here! Thanks! What about Sec? Some of the scaling agile frameworks (SAFe) throw in the DevSecOps role onto the team. More of a responsibility then a tool? What are your thoughts though,.. is part of the learning path Security as well? That's a big, lotta knowledge (DevSecOps) to cram into my tiny head? :)

Are you DevOps Engineer?
@@riteshkokane4493 from what I’ve read online that sounds pretty stnadard

That was smooth. Just what I was looking for
Good stuff here! your videos help me understand DevOps very clearly, they are very usefull! thanks! I want watch more!
I started my journey 3 months ago and edureka have made me understand alot I'm confused about even though I'm still confused but I ma still following my road map and I wish to get a mentor
Ok, besides your excellent insite, you have abviously been to several cookouts on the other side of town!🤜🤛You got swag myman! LOL
unrelated topic.... you have a great speaking voice. It makes receiving information so much easier.
Wow this is one of the best explanations I’ve heard..very well articulated! 👍🏻
dear travis, this is very handy.and informative video. Additionally, you scrpted it very well and enough descriptive.
Hello Travis,
I want to express my sincere gratitude for creating this video. It has truly inspired me to continue my learning journey and maintain consistency in my efforts. Your explanation of various tools, even though I may not be proficient in them yet, has provided me with valuable knowledge on how to manage them effectively. Your teaching style is simple and concise, making it accessible to anyone, regardless of their level of experience. Thanks to your video, I feel excited to embark on this journey and learn more. I've subscribed for more of your content, and I eagerly anticipate what else you have in store.
Thank you once again for your invaluable contribution.
Amazing video.
Please accept a small correction, ELK and Splunk are logging tools and not monitoring
Monitoring has tools like Prometheus, thanos, zabbix and more
true, but elastic search do have monitoring feature tho

Correct
two minutes in and your explanations are far superior than most. thank you
Then you also have the infrastructure and systems engineers who have been working cloud infrastructure deployment and hybrid migrations from on-premises and private datacenters and now want to learn to automate a great deal of it. This is great content!
Agile is not a subset of Scrum - Scrum is an Agile framework, so it´s the other way around :) Everything else was so helpful for me as Scrum Master with no dev background, thank you :)
and at least 3 years experience with large software projects plus extensive experience with azure, this is the case in australia for a junior devops
I find this so darn interesting I can barely contain myself...
Best way to learn and to advance is through practice. I don't think there are shortcuts in transitioning to DevOps and you still need a decent computing background if you want to start from scratch with both Dev and Ops practices.
I'm in Cybersecurity. I'm a security analyst and under paid. I'm not sure if I wanna continue in Cybersecurity due to how hard it is getting a job in it. I was looking at devops and just want to get a pay bump and make 55-60k a year and then work my way up into a six figure career. I want something I can learn in everyday and make a career. Where I'm at now I just look at emails all day long and mark them an attack or safe. I've learned different attacks they do but that's about it. Nothing real technical or cool just boring emails.
How much do you make currently?
In modern world it looks like people have forgotten that DevOps meant to be a bridge between Devs and Operations teams, and modern DevOps engineers are slowly became new Ops.
So there is no more dev and ops with devops between them, it is more like there are only devs and devops, and operations teams are not existent.
So some of the tasks devops supposed to do is now done by developers(aws setups and etc.) and all of the tasks operations supposed to do are thrown at devops(monitoring, on-calls, etc.).
lol.. the way you say just learn this... just learn that. and its about 10 things to learn.. it sounded funny. loved how simple the explanation is
How stable is devops? I mean lets say you automatize everything and setup a great ci/cd... what will stop the company from firing you?
Because
1. It will break at some point
2. You’ll need to automate the next thing on the list as the company continues moving forward
3. And who else will be expected to know and do everything there 😅
I worked for a company before where we jumped from contract to contract with the goal of automating ourself out of each of them. The work kept coming.
Very good overview. I was hired as a Platform Engineer (same thing except I write the apps that run on the infra too) three years ago. I had to learn every technology you mentioned on the job (besides Ansible).
Were you working in the field already ?
This is great thank you so much, I am a php/drupal dev and I want to switch to DevOps as soon as possible. Already know Git, linux and coding.
That ELK Story Got me 😂, Awesome video !
As always, the best content out there for such advice. Start the video with a meme or whatever, doesn't matter lol
Such a genious! Very informative ❤
great video!
I know networking, Ansible, network automation with python and Linux, based on your information and clear explanation I think I should go for the rest of the skills and try to become a devops engineer.
Thanks Travis, this came in very handy.
Very cool! I'm actually pushing in production any of my big project for the first time, it has to be very scalable so I move on AWS, and I learnt so much since I finish the web dev part and start de devOps part. Terraform looks awesome.
Btw what do you do all the day long at work as a devOps? I'm curious because I only see that like a few step, create config, CI/CD and deploy, and then you're done for a long time approximately, so basically do you become a Web dev for example when your devOps work is finished?
hi, you shortly talked about this in the last part But If you had to Start from beginning with no front end/full stack dev experience ; Would you go into Devops with the 10 steps below or start with Front/fullstack dev? Also, how long would this take if you went full time with the 10 steps & to apply for jobs with no Experience? 2 or 3 months?
Hey. I think the best answer is just getting familiar with a little bit of everything and then choosing what you think is cool for you. You think webdev is cool? Then focus on that first. You think building clusters of Linux webservers is cool? Begin with that. And if you don't have any experience in any mentioned field, I would say you need something around 12-18 months of learning to apply for a Junior DevOps Engineer. Of course you may become an intern somewhere, but usually it takes something around it. I have few colleagues who changed their jobs to IT and became software Devs, and they said they got their first jobs after that amount of time. The fastest one was 7 months, but that was just one case.
This was excellent big trav! Thank you..subbing
It cleared all my confusion and gave me a clear path from where to start. Thank you so much.
Scrum is actually a subset of agile. There are other agile methodologies such as Kanban.
Amazing explanation! thumbs up and subbed!!
what a G you are Mr. Travis....thankyou for the information
Ok First of all. You sound as kool as the back side of the pillow lol! Second of all, you have explained this infrastructure of a Dev ops career to me better than a mother's milk nurtures a baby!(roll with it). Lastly, I'm subscribing and going to devour your videos to help me pick whether I want to pursue Dev Ops, Cloud admin, Cyber security or some Linux admin(red hat government route)! Thank you! God bless!
1:00-1:33 that’s me. Let’s get into it!
This was super helpful!
GREAT video Travis! ❤👊🏻🤘🏻
Thank you Travis.. Great content!
Great video, thank you Travis.
Thank you, I shall start looking up for resources.
Good stuff here! Thanks! What about Sec? Some of the scaling agile frameworks (SAFe) throw in the DevSecOps role onto the team. More of a responsibility then a tool? What are your thoughts though,.. is part of the learning path Security as well? That's a big, lotta knowledge (DevSecOps) to cram into my tiny head? :)
