I’ve built APIs, worked with authentication, databases, Git and Linux basics.</p> <p>But now I want to understand what happens beyond writing the application.</p> <p>How do we containerize it?<br><br> How does it get deployed?<br><br> How do servers actually work?<br><br> How do CI/CD pipelines automate everything?<br><br> And how does cloud infrastructure fit into all of this?</p> <p>That’s what brought me to DevOps.</p> <p>I’m currently going deeper into Linux and learning Docker, AWS, CI/CD and cloud fundamentals.</p> <p>I’m planning to use DEV to document this journey — not just the things that work, but also the errors, confusing concepts, broken setups and the solutions I find along the way.</p> <p>I’m still learning, so if you spot something I could understand better, feel free to share your thoughts.</p> <p>Here’s to learning, building, breaking things, fixing them, and getting better one step at a time.</p> <p>See you in the next post! </p> aws devops docker linux
