Akhilesh Mishra's recent activity is not available, however, based on general trends in the DevOps community, the focus is shifting from tool-specific knowledge like Kubernetes, Docker, and Terraform to more practical, project-based learning and real-world problem-solving skills. There is also an emphasis on understanding the business side of cloud engineering, including cost implications and financial management. Additionally, the field is moving beyond just technical skills, with a growing need for DevOps engineers to design robust systems and ensure smooth application deployment and infrastructure scaling.

"Shell scripting is the one skill that separates DevOps engineers who panic during incidents from those who fix them in minutes. I spent X years in Linux before I got into DevOps. I wrote a minimalistic ebook on Linux shell scripting that will give you enough knowledge to start writing any shell scripts I'm giving it away for free.

"A lot of people ask me which cloud platform to start learning DevOps: AWS Azure GCP ❓ 👉Let me break it down simply: 🟠 AWS (Amazon Web Services) - 32-35% market share - AWS has the most job opportunities but also the most competition. - AWS has been around the longest there are more skilled professionals in the market making it harder to stand out. - It offers the best learning resources with high-quality tutorials real projects and active Reddit communities. - 1-year free tier gives you plenty of time to learn without spending money. - Strong community support makes it easy to find help"

"AWS has 200+ services. Most DevOps engineers use these XX daily and touch maybe 5-10 others occasionally. Networking: VPC - your private cloud network ALB - traffic distribution across servers Route53 - DNS and domain management Compute: EC2 - virtual servers ECS - Docker container orchestration EKS - managed Kubernetes Lambda - serverless functions Storage & Data: S3 - object storage that scales infinitely RDS - managed databases Operations: CloudWatch - monitoring logs alerts IAM - access control and permissions Focus on understanding how these XX services work together rather than"

"Your Kubernetes DNS is slow because your pods are calling a DNS server on the other side of the cluster. Every hostname lookup becomes a network round trip. Your app on node X needs to resolve a service name so it calls CoreDNS running on node X. Then the response travels all the way back. NodeLocal DNSCache puts a DNS cache on every single node. Now your pods communicate with localhost for DNS instead of traversing the network. Cached queries return instantly. Cache misses still go to CoreDNS but most production workloads have predictable DNS patterns. The setup is simple: deploy a DaemonSet"

"Breaking into DevOps is hard. The tools seem endless. The requirements feel impossible. But heres the truth: It happens in your mind first then in reality. When you see a job posting asking for AWS Docker Kubernetes and Terraform your mind says impossible. Thats where you lose. Every DevOps engineer started exactly where you are. Overwhelmed and doubting. They believed they could figure it out. Not because they were smarter. Because they changed their mindset. Instead of saying this is too complex- say Ill learn one piece at a time. Instead of saying Ill never understand Kubernetes - Ill"

"Everyone talks about Kubernetes Terraform and AWS. And yes they matter. But the most underrated skill Ive seen in DevOps is communication. When a deployment fails its not just about fixing YAML. Its about explaining whats happening to product managers QA and leadership in a way they can actually understand. A strong DevOps engineer can bridge technical and business. They can calm a room during an incident align teams on a plan and translate XXX errors on the ALB into users cant log in right now. Thats the difference between being the person who fixes things and being the person people trust"

"Stop collecting AWS certifications thinking thats how you learn cloud. If you are just starting to learn AWS here are X beginner-friendly AWS projects that will teach you more than any shiny certification will. And you can do it on your own: Project 1: Static Website on S3 Host a simple site for $0/month plus learn bucket policies CloudFront integration and why public buckets are dangerous. Project 2: EC2 Web Server Launch an instance and deploy a small app while discovering security groups SSH keys and why you need load balancers. Project 3: File Backup System Upload and retrieve files in S3"

"Breaking into DevOps is hard. The tools seem endless. The requirements feel impossible. But heres the truth: It happens in your mind first then in reality. When you see a job posting asking for AWS Docker Kubernetes and Terraform your mind says impossible. Thats where you lose. Every DevOps engineer started exactly where you are. Overwhelmed and doubting. They believed they could figure it out. Not because they were smarter. Because they changed their mindset. Instead of saying this is too complex- say Ill learn one piece at a time. Instead of saying Ill never understand Kubernetes - Ill"

"Everyone talks about Kubernetes Terraform and AWS. And yes they matter. But the most underrated skill Ive seen in DevOps is communication. When a deployment fails its not just about fixing YAML. Its about explaining whats happening to product managers QA and leadership in a way they can actually understand. A strong DevOps engineer can bridge technical and business. They can calm a room during an incident align teams on a plan and translate XXX errors on the ALB into users cant log in right now. Thats the difference between being the person who fixes things and being the person people trust"

Your laptop and internet connection: Thats all you need to start. No expensive bootcamps. No fancy certifications. Just you your determination and these free tools. While others are complaining about job markets and layoffs DevOps engineers are getting multiple offers. Companies are desperate for people who can automate deploy and manage"

"I'm building the largest database of real-world DevOps projects and resources for aspiring DevOps engineers. This includes: - Real-world AWS projects using Terraform & GitHub Actions - Docker implementation examples you can use - GCP and Azure projects for multi-cloud expertise - Kubernetes projects from simple to complex deployments I wish this had existed when I started my DevOps journey. It's already packed with practical hands-on projects that go beyond theory. Looking for collaborators who are passionate about DevOps and want to build something truly valuable for the community.
