Hi Gwyneth! This is Axa. A year ago I decided to make a career change from Vet school into Tech. A year later now, I got a job at AWS as a Cloud Support Engineer with a Linux focused role! Here in Mexico City (I worked as a Support Technician at Rackspace Technology for half a year, first I had a Helpdesk job before that). I can't believe how fast this whole thing happened 😆 I was following your Cloud Engineer guide. I remember a year ago watching your videos talking about IaaS, IaC, deploying VMs.using the CLI and I couldn't get most of the things you were saying 😂 (before studying the fundamentals). Now I see this video seamlessly understanding everything you're saying and the skills that you're trying to emphasize and why. I just wanted to say, thank you! And for everyone out there, this is a path, don't try to rush it. Always keep learning. I'm still well behind my end goal for my career, if there's even an end for this 😂. Next time you go to Mexico city let me know, it would be really nice to meet you. Saludos!
love your take on infra being the future. I'm a software/data engineer but started building stuff for security teams - where the foundation is very infra heavy. haven't had so fun studying networking and hope there's a future in it for me
Hey GPS! Loved this video! It's amazing to see the fast growth happening with infrastructure as a service. Your breakdown of the foundational aspects of IaaS is super helpful, especially for those just getting started in the cloud space! I'm really looking forward to the other projects you have planned on this topic! Great work, and thanks for sharing your knowledge with us as always!
Hey what's up GPS!! This video is super helpful! Thank U 4 laying out a path and explaining what the steps are actually accomplishing! U always make things so simple and useful! I appreciate all that U do 4 us cloud newbies!!! Now I have yet another path to take in the cloud! My coding journey begins!! Be well, be safe and dope! Peace & Blessings!
I mean I don't know about 'Future Proof'; this is pretty fundamental, but it is fundamentals that a large deal of entry level applicants shockingly don't have. Nice video, well spoken and nicely presented.
Loved this! Why dont you make a series out of this? With new videos where you give instructions what to do next? I know learntocloud is super and i like it! But having videos is so much more fun and easier to understand for some people. Keep up the good work and thanks for everything you do

This is so unbelievably valuable, thank you so much. I happen to be in NY to and was curious if there are any technology meetups for cloud professionals.
Great stuff per usual. Only note/request I have as a student - can you refrain from using acronyms and use plain language/spell things out fully? It helps with comprehension for me. Thanks!
@@francisfrancis1153 I’m aware. But it’s a common communication or education mistake. It happens in the workplace all the time too. Teams/Departments use their internal lingo or acronyms and on calls will use them expecting everyone to follow or know. So it’s best to say it all or spell it out so folks can track along.
I really don't get it... I've been learning cloud for about 5 months now and stopped because of AI threat replacing majority of these responsibilities .. FEEL SO LOST
Thank you for the informative video. I recently started a new role that focuses heavily on Azure DevOps and Azure data factory. I’m partially through an AZ-400 and a DP-900 course but I’m wondering if I should go into an AZ-204 or AZ-305 afterwards. This company wants me to delve into azure cognitive services and automated testing with nodeJS
okay, so i have been getting handon with cloud/devops and after a few projects i decide the parts that interests me more are iac and ci/cd as still fairly a beginner, would you advise i dedicate most of my time to this or still try to keep it general (to increase my options) ??
Am in a impression of learning Infrastructure As a Service wont land you a job because it's replacing by microservices, Kubernetes etc as people are not preferring IaaS now a days. am Wrong now :)

Thank you for taking time to make these videos
You’re welcome! Keep an eye out for more.

appreciate the feedback, future proof as in any deployment that becomes popular, you'll be ok with these

That's a great idea!
will be great to have a series out of this and using ltc's discord as disscussion platform.
Thank you so much for sharing this, Gwyneth!! I'm currently studying for my CCP exam, and resources like this are supremely helpful. Thank you!!
Thanks to share more simple project ideas like that .....
Thank you for this looking for the iaas. Go Mets!
love your videos. Keep it up. amazing job. Thank you!
Glad you like them!
This is so good! Love the next video idea as well
Thanks! Some very good pointers. Definitely have to get more used to IaC
Glad it was helpful!
This channel is the best! Thank you for your amazing help!
Happy to help!
You're just awesome GPS

Why do you need more certs? Are they requiring that?
Please what diagram tool is this you used?
Thanks for this GPS, would it be the same thing if I just use spare hardware around the house? Like I have a desktop, laptop and pi(not being used)
great video, thank you
does this mean that infra as code tools could gain much more relevance (and growth) in the near future too?
Yes, absolutely
okay, so i have been getting handon with cloud/devops and after a few projects i decide the parts that interests me more are iac and ci/cd
as still fairly a beginner, would you advise i dedicate most of my time to this or still try to keep it general (to increase my options) ??
@@yutee_okon do you have a job already?
no, currently hunting…
@@yutee_okon focus on what job descriptions are looking for
Why I need to do the ssh ip thing, if the vm only allows you to connect to it with your private key?
What if someone got hold of your private key?
Layers of protection. I wouldn’t trust just one thing to be the barrier between the baddies and my treasures

Did you watch the video?
@@MadeByGPS yes did i missed something ?
pls correct me if am wrong
Can we get a tutorial
nah, I guide you, you go put in the work to learn, tutorials remove the struggle of
