DevOps basic knowledge requirements. Where to begin?

Question

*nix-like systems

Good afternoon, I have
recently become interested in vacancies related to DevOps. The question follows from this:
I understand that each company / project has its own requirements, but still. What basic knowledge and technologies are needed for development in this vacancy and what should be emphasized more?
Thank you very much!

Answer 1

Unfortunately, the job title DevOps Engineer is just an incorrect wording of the job. DevOps engineers do not exist, and if you were hired for this vacancy, it means that you ended up either in the position of a classic system administrator, or in the position of "And the Swiss and the reaper and the pipe," at best it will be an automation engineer. DevOps is a modern way of working for IT companies, focused on quickly adapting to a changing market and frequently releasing software updates. This technique requires both organizational and process changes in the company. Unfortunately, many people think that hiring a DevOps engineer is enough to transform an organization.
If you are applying for a position as a release engineer or automation engineer, then I recommend that you read the book "Continuous Software Deployment. Automating the Processes of Building, Testing, and Deploying New Software Versions" www.ozon.ru/context/detail/id/7243884 In this The book describes in detail what such a person should know and have.

Answer 2

In my understanding, DevOps is an admin programmer. More bias in the direction of administration.
If admins just admin.
Programmers just program.
then DevOps sets up the process, sets up the right environment, makes sure that the main routine operations are automated.
Accordingly, the emphasis should be on build systems, testing, deployment, virtualization, bash, python, etc.

Answer 3

This is an ordinary programmer,
actually look at any vacancy and everything is written there in plain text and stupidly go and learn from the list from the vacancy and then go to get a job on it
