    LOVED THIS VIDEO! I just got my first internship as a Cloud Engineer as a self taught python student and it's been really overwhelming to take in so many concepts all at once. You have made me understand things I have been struggling to understand for weeks now! I really appreciate you for putting your knowledge out there for us!

Both the 104 & 400 look tricky, SO much detail to learn & remember, I've done practice questions, some were heavy! So I'm slightly nervous as to whether I'll get my head around it all and pass.

Would you suggest a person with basic programming skills in Python and C++, a non-IT background (mechanical engineering), who is willing to do online certification courses in Devops and AWS, to pursue a career change into a new path as a Cloud Engineer?
    Is it worth investing the time and taking the risk to start from bottom in a new field ?
    Would really appreciate your suggestions :) !

    Is their any relationship between networking Engineering and cloud Engineering. Becoming a cloud Engineer does it have any benefits when moving into cloud.

    • @MadeByGPS
      @MadeByGPS  4 роки тому +7

      If you're a network engineer, you definitely have an advantage when you move into cloud, over people who don't have that experience. Understanding the fundamentals of networking is very important in Cloud computing. Some of it is already handled by the cloud platform, but still very important to know.

I am recently hired as an IT analyst and my company uses Azure, so i am currently planning to give AZ 104 admin exam by the end of Feb and since I have development knowledge from my college, m planning to give az 204 developer certification as well after it.
    After that, I am planning to give RHCSA, and then giving Azure DevOps. P.S : I already have CCNA and Security+.
    Is that the right path to follow?

      I agree! My brother has tried to explain some of the stuff he does and I used to get cloud-eyed when some of these terms like "kubernetes" or "terraform" were thrown out. But, you did a really good job of explaining the terms in their proper context! Thank you.

    Initially I wanted to be a Web developer, was practicing coding via udemy academy and was enjoying it then found coding more challenging the more I went on then thought there no way. I recently came across the option of cloud engineer and am exploring this now. Not sure which one to chose to self study Azure or AWS? But at present I'm taking the Azure route. I would like to know if it is worth doing if I find coding challenging 🤔
