Let’s Get This Journey Started! 👋

Focus Area: Getting Started

Hey there! 👋

This is where I’ll be sharing what I’m learning, building, and figuring out on my path to becoming a DevOps engineer. Here’s how I’ll organize things.

📋 Blog Structure

Here’s the format I’ll use for my posts:

🎯 Context & Objective - What I’m working on and why
✅ Work Recap & Achievements - What I built or learned
🧗 Challenges & Struggles - Problems I ran into
📚 Key Learnings & Progress - New concepts that clicked
⏭️ Next Steps & Closing Thoughts - Where I’m headed next

Simple enough to keep me consistent while sharing useful information.

🗺️ What I’m Aiming For

I’m documenting my journey through DevOps and cloud technologies. You can check out my full plan here: My DevOps Roadmap

What I want to learn:

🐧 Linux & Shell - Getting comfortable with system administration
🐳 Docker & Containerization - Building and deploying containerized apps
☸️ Kubernetes & Home Lab - Setting up a home lab and learning orchestration
☁️ AWS Cloud - Moving apps to the cloud
📜 Certifications - AWS Solutions Architect Associate and CKA

The goal? Build enough skills to start freelancing as a DevOps engineer.

🚀 Starting with the Basics

Linux & Networking - Since everything in DevOps runs on Linux, I’m revisiting the fundamentals. Even with my background from 42 School, there’s always more to learn, especially around operations and automation.

What I’m covering:

  • Command line operations and shell scripting
  • Networking basics (TCP/IP, DNS, firewalls)
  • SSH setup and security
  • Git workflows for infrastructure code

💡 Why Blog About This?

A few reasons: it keeps me on track, helps me remember what I’ve learned, and shows potential clients how I work. Plus, if someone else finds it useful, that’s a bonus.

Every problem I solve and every “aha!” moment will be documented here.

Let’s see where this goes! 🚀
