🔥 Day 5 of 30: Are Certifications Overrated in Tech? 🔥 Happy Monday! Today, let’s dive into a controversial topic: Are certifications really worth it in the tech industry? On one hand, certifications like AWS Certified Solutions Architect or Certified Kubernetes Administrator can validate your skills and open doors to new opportunities. On the other hand, many argue that hands-on experience and real-world projects are far more valuable and indicative of a person’s abilities. Here are my thoughts: • Pros of Certifications: They provide structured learning, validate your knowledge, and can boost your resume. • Cons of Certifications: They can be expensive, time-consuming, and sometimes don’t reflect practical, on-the-job skills. Personally, I believe if you’re fresher and no idea where to start it will give you a roadmap and also this time investment in your early career will give you a headstarr but I’m eager to hear your perspectives. Have certifications helped your career, or do you find hands-on experience more valuable? Let’s discuss and share our experiences! #30Days30Posts #DevOps #TechCertifications #HandsOnExperience #TechCommunity #ContinuousLearning

When I first started my #journey in #DevOps and #Cloud three years ago, I was eager to learn but didn’t know where to begin. The field seemed huge, with so many tools and practices to master. But I knew that with dedication and persistence, I could find my way. Today, with three years of hands-on experience, I want to share my story to inspire students and freshers who are starting their own careers in DevOps and Cloud. In the beginning, I quickly realized that this field wasn’t just about tools—it was about a #mindset. It required understanding both development and operations, and how they could work together smoothly in the cloud. I focused on the basics: learning #Linux, getting comfortable with #Git, and understanding how CI/CD #pipelines work. Every small win, like #automating a build process or setting up a pipeline, fueled my passion to dive deeper. As I gained more experience, I tackled bigger challenges. I started working with cloud platforms like #AWS, learning to deploy and manage infrastructure as code using tools like #Terraform. There were challenges along the way—debugging failed deployments, optimizing pipelines, and ensuring everything was resilient and scalable—but with each one, I grew more confident. One of the most rewarding parts of my journey was learning how to scale applications in #Kubernetes and setting up #monitoring and #logging systems. These tasks were tough, but they taught me the importance of resilience and automation. Throughout my journey, my seniors and mentors played a crucial role. Their #guidance, #support, and #encouragement helped me navigate through #challenges and grow in my career. They not only expanded my understanding but also kept me motivated to keep pushing forward. Looking back, my journey in DevOps and Cloud has been all about growth and learning. With three years of experience, I’ve realized that success isn’t about mastering everything at once—it’s about #persistence, #consistency, and being willing to learn from every challenge. To all the aspiring DevOps and Cloud engineers out there—keep pushing forward. Embrace the challenges, learn from every experience, and remember that every step you take brings you closer to your goals. If you need help or guidance, feel free to contact me. You can reach me on #LinkedIn or #Topmate: https://lnkd.in/egVwet-s. I’m here to support you and share my #experience. Let’s continue this #journey together!

The skills that took me from Product Support to SRE 5 years ago, I was debugging customer issues. Today, I'm architecting systems that serve millions. The journey from Product Support to Site Reliability Engineering taught me one crucial lesson: It's all about the right skills. Here are the top 5 skills that accelerated my SRE career in India: 1. Cloud Architecture (AWS) 2. Infrastructure as Code (Terraform) 3. Observability & Monitoring (Datadog) 4. Containerization (Kubernetes) 5. Scripting & Automation (Python) Mastering these opened doors I never knew existed. But here's the kicker: Technical skills alone aren't enough. The real game-changer? Problem-solving and communication. Being able to break down complex issues and explain them simply is invaluable. For aspiring SREs: Focus on these skills, and watch your career (and salary) soar. What skill do you think is most crucial for SREs today? #SRESkills #TechCareers #ContinuousLearning #CloudComputing #DevOps #SiteReliability
