How to Choose a Path

4 entries

DevOps spans many tools, so credentials are tied to platforms rather than one exam. A common route is Linux and Git, a CI/CD tool, containers and Kubernetes, infrastructure as code, then a cloud DevOps certification and observability or SRE practices.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which DevOps certification should I take first?

If you use a public cloud, start with its DevOps certification path. For tool-neutral skills, the Linux Foundation Kubernetes certifications (KCNA, then CKA or CKAD) are widely respected and hands-on.

Is there an official DevOps certification?

No single official one exists. Credentials come from cloud providers, the Linux Foundation and CNCF, HashiCorp, Red Hat and the DevOps Institute.

How do I practise without a company environment?

Use free interactive labs such as Killercoda, GitHub Skills and cloud free tiers. Build a small project with a CI/CD pipeline, containers, Terraform and monitoring.

What should I learn after CI/CD and Kubernetes?

Infrastructure as code (Terraform, Ansible), GitOps, observability with Prometheus, and SRE practices from the Google SRE books.
