DevOps? What on earth is DevOps, and should you, as a cloud beginner target the DevOps role? My short answer: no.

The DevOps role is very confused across the industry, with many companies having a vastly different idea of what a DevOps person does, making it much harder to build a learning plan around, and making it harder to prepare for interviews.

This doesn't mean you shouldn't apply for jobs with the title DevOps, just that I don't recommend using it as a role to target.
