How to Become an DevOps Engineer?

It is important to understand the fact that DevOps does not just for developers or engineers working in systems. It's for everyone who is passionate about changing practices and the latest technologies, and who is willing to be part of a cooperative environment that is fully automated to make the lives of everyone simple.

It doesn't matter if you are a developer, sysadmin tester and support engineer, performance engineer and so on. You could be a DevOps engineer as you're already within an IT ecosystem accountable for deploying and managing applications from development to production.

This article will explain how to be prepared for the tools and technology to be an DevOps engineer who follows the DevOps principle.

Learn about DevOps Culture

To become an DevOps engineer first factor is to be aware of how to understand the DevOps style of working. It's all about diverse teams working to achieve the same objective. If you are planning to a DevOps Engineer then its worth taking DevOps Certification. Also, there should not be any blame game between the different groups of the IT industry.

For instance, if you're a devOps engineer Never ever say "It's your job" Instead, say, "Let me see what I can do to assist." The way you react can have a major influence on the collaboration. (It does not mean that you need to feed people with spoons and take on the work of others.)

NOTE: If you are younger, understanding the cultural aspects can be difficult since it is based on actual working experience in the industry. My advice is to concentrate on the fundamental IT fundamentals (OS Networking, OS and programming)

IT executives and decision-makers must ensure that all team members are educated about DevOps culture aspects prior to implementing DevOps tools. This will help avoid confusion among teams. This isn't the norm in companies that do, but they can are often able to create an " DevOps Team" for operations. This again ends with a siloed structure.

The public would be able to see their truths and cease blaming other people for problems with their projects once they recognize that any issue in the delivery of projects must be dealt with in a co-operative approach rather than simply pointing fingers. For instance the postmortem, a guilt-free postmortem.

Once you have a grasp of the DevOps culture, you will not be saying " CI/CD and infrastructure automation is DevOps."

I suggest you read the current state of DevOps report from puppet. It is a must-read report for devOps leaders and engineers.
