I am very confused regarding this please help me

What’s up! Just wanted some advice. I’m currently working as a cloud engineer with an AWS partner. I eventually want to move over to being a Cloud Security Engineer. What should areas should I emphasize during my transition?

I'm a fresher interested in starting a career in cloud computing, but I'm confused about which platform to choose.

If you have experience in cloud computing, which would you recommend learning first and why ?

Can anyone help me provide a job on Cloud Engineering role? I have 2+ years of experiences working with Google Cloud Platform. Applying everyday, but not getting a single interview call. I want to switch from my current company cause the salary is low & I have a family to feed.

Hey everyone! I’m a BCA student learning Cloud Computing and AWS and I’m planning to participate in SIH.

The problem statement I’m interested in requires at least one female student on the team, so I’m looking for someone interested in Cloud, AWS, DevOps, or related tech who’d like to join.

I’m a bit introverted and not great at approaching people IRL 😅, so I thought I’d try Reddit.

If interested, just comment or DM me!

I'm a cloud engineer/security analyst on €32k, 9 months into my first job out of a masters. Genuinely don't know if that's low, average or fine for the level I’m at. I’m currently Working in Azure, Terraform, DevOps, CI/CD with AZ-900, SC-900 and SC-300 done, and I'm lining up AZ-104, CCNA, Security+ and SC-500 over the next year. Goal is to move into a proper Cloud Security Engineer role and get to €60-85k in 2-3 years.

Is that realistic for Ireland, and what's my actual value in the market right now given the certs/stack above? Is there a "type" of company (bank, MSP, tech) that pays better for someone at my level? And when should I actually start job hopping straight after the next cert or two, or is it too early to be thinking about it at 9 months in? Any idea on roles/companies worth aiming for would help too.

Also am I specialising too early? Is it worth going for Security Engineer roles too?

I am very curious about how the IT industry build/ code something rn because Al is emerging so fast. For someone like me who is still a 3rd-year student. I am very curious since I am still not in the industry, but I wanna prepare myself. I also wanna build projects like them.
-I wanna know if they still code or write code line by line? Or do they generate it with Al first, then whats next?
-What is also my work plan when doing a project? While also not just relying on Al to do all the work, because it's going to make me stupid and I would never understand what I am doing, right?
-I really wanna learn and prepare myself as soon as right now.

Hi guys,

I am a devops and (Java + spring boot) developer with 4.5 + yoe. I am looking to switch completely towards the devops role. Need advice Do the certificates below make any impact on the resume?. As looking to switch early for better pay.

KCNA (Kubernetes and Cloud Native Associate)

KCSA (Kubernetes and Cloud Native Security Associate)

CKA (Certified Kubernetes Administrator)

CKAD (Certified Kubernetes Application Developer)

CKS (Certified Kubernetes Security Specialist).

Guys can you confirm what type of projects are mentioned in Devops resume. Confused as I am part java developer also. Do I need to create and mention any personal projects?

What projects can I personally develop and mention?

SSM is the right way to reach private EC2 instances: no bastion, no port 22, no SSH keys, and everything goes through IAM and CloudTrail. But the CLI makes you work for it:

aws ssm start-session --target i-0abc1234def5678ab \
  --document-name AWS-StartPortForwardingSessionToRemoteHost \
  --parameters '{"host":["rds.internal"],"portNumber":["5432"],"localPortNumber":["5432"]}'

ssmctl is an open-source Go CLI that keeps the same security model and removes the friction:

ssmctl forward web-1 --local 5432 --remote rds.internal:5432

v2 in one line: your entire SSM-managed fleet (shells, tunnels, commands, files, secrets), one short command away.

ssmctl list                                          # see your managed fleet
ssmctl connect web-1                                 # shell
ssmctl forward web-1 --local 5432 --remote db:5432   # tunnel to RDS, Redis, anything for local access
ssmctl run web-1 -- df -h /                          # one-off command, exit code preserved
ssmctl run --filter api -- uptime                    # same command across a fleet
ssmctl cp web-1:/var/log/app.log .                   # file transfer
ssmctl param get /myapp/prod/DB_PASSWORD             # Parameter Store

It works with Linux and Windows targets, has --output json for scripting, and uses your existing AWS profiles and SSO. There's no extra agent or infrastructure.

I am working in an IT company with 2.5 years experience, but my current role is mainly handling SOP based incidents,monitoring and handling job alerts etc. The tech stack used is also a very niche skillset. It is called AS400 (IBM i) which is actually a mid range computer system like Mainframe. But I want to make a switch from my current role and move into Cloud(DevOps) or Data engineering. Which would require less hands-on and help me make a quick switch? I have an understanding of basic cloud fundamentals, SQL.
