Started a Cloud/DevOps/SRE Community Today… Already 10 Members Joined! 🚀
Hi everyone,
I'm a Cloud/DevOps Engineer and for the past few months I've been thinking about one question:
Why do so many students complete DevOps courses but still struggle to crack Cloud/DevOps interviews?
After talking to a lot of students and freshers, I realized the problem isn't a lack of courses—it's a lack of practical experience.
Most people know the commands.
Very few have actually:
- Deployed applications on AWS or GCP
- Built CI/CD pipelines
- Managed Kubernetes workloads
- Debugged production issues
- Worked with observability tools
- Experienced what an SRE actually does
So today I decided to start a Discord community for people who genuinely want to learn Cloud, DevOps, and SRE.
I wasn't expecting much, but 10 people joined within the first few hours, which motivated me to keep building it.
The plan is to cover topics like:
- Linux & Networking
- Git & GitHub
- AWS & GCP
- Docker & Kubernetes
- Terraform
- Jenkins & GitHub Actions
- GitOps (ArgoCD)
- Prometheus & Grafana
- Loki & OpenTelemetry
- Apache Kafka
- Trivy & SonarQube
- Production troubleshooting
- Resume reviews
- Mock interviews
- Career guidance
Rather than creating another recorded course, I want to keep the batches small and interactive, with live sessions, hands-on labs, real projects, and plenty of time for questions.
Just to be transparent: this mentorship will have a small fee. The reason isn't to maximize enrollments—it's to keep the group committed and small enough that I can personally help everyone.
The Discord community is where I'll be sharing updates, the roadmap, and answering questions.

I'd also love your feedback:
- What do you think most DevOps courses are missing?
- If you were learning today, what would you want a mentor to teach?
- What projects helped you the most in interviews?
I'm hoping to build something that actually prepares people for real Cloud/DevOps/SRE roles instead of just handing out another certificate.
Looking forward to your thoughts! 🚀
