Devlog 001: Learning Cloud
A summary of what I've been doing and what's next
8/22/2025
It’s been some time since I’ve done anything on this website. So I felt like it was time to do some updates to this web.
The path to cloud
As it’s being said, I’ve been learning cloud because:
- My job requires me to do so
- I want to make a home server to centralize my data on a point
This being said, I can recommend a few resources. The guide from the guys of learn2cloud it’s a good start point to get on the basics. What I like about it, it’s that it tries to get you hands on projects that you could learn from.
Also, I’ll like to mention the roadmap on roadmap.sh for the DevOps Engineering roadmap.
My personal recommendations
As I get more deep into this, the more I realize my university failed me into teaching (or more like, I failed myself into learning these. lol) the basics of basic networking and unix based system administration. The stuff that I highly recommend don’t skip is:
- Basic bash scripting.
- 101 of Networking.
- Software and Network architecture.
- Learning how to properly code.
- Getting used to a shell.
- GIT.
- Virtual environments (Docker or/and Nix).
- How to unfuck a fucked up server.
What’s ahead for me?
I have some stuff I got to work on before I can move on the next big thing. But my current planned project I’ll do is:
- Set up a local linux machine.
- Start looking on how to run properly run a panel where I can run all the apps I want to use.
- Mirror a local gitea server into github.
- Move all the stuff on my google drive into a NAS.
- Start learning IoT.
- Expand all of this on a K8s or K3s cluster with scrap machines I find.
