Hey everyone! I'm currently working as a cloud engineer at a tech company, but I'm eager to expand my skills into DevOps and SRE as quickly as I can. Do you think the TWN bootcamp is a good way to make this transition and learn the necessary skills?

Starting off with hands-on projects could really help! You might want to run an open source e-commerce site from GitHub and try using Terraform to launch a couple of EC2 instances. Set up your networking with a VPC, public subnet, and an internet gateway, along with security groups. Get into user data configuration like you would with Ansible, then use JMeter for load testing, and set up CloudWatch for monitoring. It's a lot to tackle, but it covers essential skills!
If you're looking for a structured path into DevOps and don't want to piece things together yourself, TWN could be a solid choice. Given your background in cloud engineering, you should be able to pick up things quickly, but remember to engage in hands-on projects and real-world work to truly sharpen your skills.
Thanks for the insight! I'm leaning towards something structured to grab the basics. What do you think about KodeCloud?
Also, consider checking out the OpenTelemetry demo project. It's huge and gives you a lot to work with!
