DevOps Roadmap

Master the Linux operating system — commands, file system, permissions, and system administration.

Master networking fundamentals for DevOps — from TCP/IP to container networking, service discovery, and advanced troubleshooting.

Master YAML syntax — scalars, lists, mappings, anchors, and YAML in DevOps workflows.

Learn Bash scripting to automate tasks — variables, loops, functions, and real-world scripts.

Master Git version control — branching, merging, workflows, and collaboration with GitHub/GitLab.

Use Python for automation, scripting, API calls, and building DevOps tools.

Learn containerization with Docker — images, containers, Dockerfile, Compose, and networking.

Master container orchestration with Kubernetes — pods, deployments, services, and Helm.

Build automated pipelines — Jenkins, GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, and deployment strategies.

Declarative infrastructure and application delivery — ArgoCD, FluxCD, and GitOps workflows.

Explore AWS, Azure, and GCP — compute, storage, networking, serverless, and multi-cloud.

Infrastructure as Code with Terraform — HCL, providers, state, modules, and best practices.

Configuration management with Ansible — playbooks, roles, modules, and automation.

Monitor your systems — Prometheus, Grafana, ELK Stack, distributed tracing, and alerting.

SRE principles — error budgets, SLOs, incident management, and on-call practices.

Build resilient systems — chaos principles, Chaos Monkey, Litmus, and experiment design.

Secure your pipelines and infrastructure — SAST, DAST, container security, and compliance.

Manage microservice communication — Istio, Linkerd, mTLS, and traffic management.
