Cloud & DevOps

The essential cloud services every engineer must know — compute, storage, networking, serverless, and managed databases on AWS, with Azure and GCP equivalents.

Containers from the ground up — what Docker is, how it works, writing Dockerfiles, docker-compose for multi-service apps, and production best practices.

Container orchestration from first principles — pods, deployments, services, ingress, autoscaling, and how Kubernetes keeps your apps running at scale.

Continuous Integration and Continuous Delivery — automating builds, tests, and deployments with GitHub Actions, deployment strategies, and production pipeline patterns.

Infrastructure as Code — provision and manage cloud resources with Terraform's declarative syntax, state management, modules, and production workflows.

Logs, metrics and traces as one discipline: correlation ids, RED dashboards, SLOs and error budgets, and alerts that page on user pain.
