Introduction @ezequielporto

Hi, I’m Ezequiel Porto from Argentina .

I work as a SysAdmin and I’m new to GitLab.

I would like to learn about DevOps.

Hi Ezequiel,

Welcome to the community!

Lucky for you, there are many materials out there. I’ll post you here a few links of my favorites.

YouTube:

• Techworld With Nana - DevOps intro - What is DevOps? REALLY understand it | DevOps vs SRE - YouTube
  • this channel is in generally focused on DevOps so you can further learn a lot, even about GitLab CI/CD - GitLab CI CD Tutorial for Beginners [Crash Course] - YouTube
  • Nana has also her own DevOps bootcamp as well -
• Bret Fisher’s channel - Bret Fisher Docker and DevOps - YouTube
  • Bret comes from Sysadmin field too, and focuses on Docker and Kubernetes topics
  • he also has great Udemy classes as well

…and many others.

General:

• Atlassian’s articles about DevOps - What is DevOps? | Atlassian
• CNCF gives a great overview of tools (don’t let it overwhelm you xD): https://landscape.cncf.io/
  • probably trail map helps: GitHub - cncf/trailmap: 🗺TrailMap files from the cncf/landscape repo
• DZone has sometimes nice summaries and articles: https://dzone.com/devops-and-cicd

Books (focused more on theory):

• Gene Kim (and others): DevOps Handbook
• Gene Kim: The Phoenix Project
• Gene Kim (and others): The Unicorn Project

Now, of course, this is a lot. So depends, maybe you focus only on a few things, depending on what your job is or what you want to do. Maybe if you’re interested in some specific topic or if you have some specific questions, feel free to post and we’ll try to forward you to the proper guide

Have fun!
