Great video. I believe the fact you had prior experience in software and devsecops engineering between 2015-2020 set the proper groundwork for you to transition over to cloud engineering. This is not a discouragement to anyone, without a technical background, to get into cloud engineering. But you must be willing to put in the work to get there. It won't take the average person 3 months but it will take time.

building projects and practicing hands-on is the key point.

I am an Azure Certified Admin (az-104), studied and passed only using brain dumps. Now even tho I am certified, I have very little actual knowledge about these services which I now need to catch up to...

Btw, as a DevOps Consultant, I can tell you it almost doesn't matter which provider out of the big 3 you pick, as the core concepts dont differ very much, they just use different names and have their unique quirks here and there, but overall any of these 3 give you the universal skills to work with any provider.

You are already an architect you said at your previous IT company I’m sure this wasn’t that hard to go into what you did. This is not I worked on a helpdesk and then in three months I became this.

[emmanueleniade]

I like the way you broke it down especially the fundamentals like networking, databases, operating system and virtualization. If I may ask where can one learn these fundamentals and how long can it take to learn it before moving to AWS OR GCP OR AZURE

Thank you for this video Soleyman. 3 mos is a realistic timeframe for people who had tech background in your case you were a front end/back end developer and you leveraged it in your application. However, for people without tech background this is not a realistic time frame. Its gonna be longer than that. Please include this as a disclaimer to those who doesn't have tech background so that it won't give them false hopes, thank you.

Well yeah I was thinking in this last week ago AWS, practioner certificate but most understanding how does works. I'm a backend developer with Node.js, JS, Java, and some Python as well, for a couple of years but sometimes I feel lost what to study I need to study this, I know DB firebase closd google, and mongdb but that'´s not enough for me, I like this I do it from now but first have to finish a web page now, I like your video that give me so comfort, keep it up friend.

Learn to use AWS CLI. Terraform is great too. You could also use Ansible if you are into that, I suggest Terraform. I use BASH in Linux with AWS CLI. I think you'll get more jobs if you know Terraform. I know, a lot of things to know. It's always one extra straw on the camel's back.
