Please forward to any San Francisco Bay Area sysadmins that might benefit
from DevOps Accelerator<https://www.bootcampdevops.com/index.php/bootcamp-devops/devops-accelerator>
3-evenings
a week 12-week bootcamp in Santa Clara, CA. Right now there is no remote /
online version of this bootcamp though I am considering one.
I am a Cloud Operations automation consultant - people call me DevOps guy
though I am not sure if DevOps is appropriate as a title. But whatever -
its here so I am not fighting it.
I have worked at Google (release/deployment automation) and then managed
Technical Operations at Zuora (a SaaS company) with very heavy security /
PCI compliance requirements. Since then I have automated cloud operations
for several startups as a consultant.
I found it very hard to find people with skills that are now associated
with DevOps movement. A combination of SysAdmin, Release Engineering,
Programming/Scripting, Puppet, etc. etc. What is interesting is that most
SysAdmins and Release Engineers know bunch of this stuff but are finding it
hard to transition to DevOps jobs due to some critical gaps in their skill
set.
So I created a Bootcamp to train people in these skills and accelerate
their transition to the more lucrative DevOps jobs. Specifically for
SysAdmins or Release Engineering folks I have what I call DevOps
Accelerator<https://www.bootcampdevops.com/index.php/bootcamp-devops/devops-accelerator>
bootcamp
that focuses on processes and tools needed to accomplish two major DevOps
initiatives I see in most companies - Continuous Delivery pipeline and
Infrastructure as Code - I see them as two sides of the same coin.
This bootcamp also includes a visit to Google campus to go meet engineers
there for Q&A. I think it is really important to see it in practice and
understand how culture plays into all of this.
Teaching style is based on real world projects, some of them derived from
my consulting career. You can read more at www.bootcampdevops.com.
Thanks and let me know if you have any questions,
