Been in a couple of tech/cloud focused rooms on Clubhouse. Competition is real out there:patrice::sadcam::whew:

Multi-Cloud seems to be the wave from an enterprise context:leostare:
Being competent with more than one cloud provider seems to be new benchmark out there. Smh :unimpressed:

Also seems like AWS has joined the gig economy :skip:, as they have a new free-lancer platform called AWS IQ that lets customers request services from AWS certified individuals (only US for now) for jobs of different sizes.

You get to set your hourly rate.



Its not farfetched to imagine a time in the future, where all these cloud jobs with high salaries are reduced gig based jobs :lupe:

I don’t have my cert yet but I’m very interested in pair programming/teaming up with anyone that does and let’s get this bread. I’ve been a solutions architect and SysOps admin for the last 5 years

Planning to take the net+ sometime in february, anybody got any tips for the exam?

I bough jason dions bootcamp course + 6 practice exams for the cheap and almost done with it. Quizzes have been fairly straight forward so far but i think ill get my true gauge of understanding after running through a couple practice test.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

I want to study to get my Comptia A+, but I feel like it’s useless right now considering my job.
Should I just get my degree or would picking up certifications sufficient for the time being.
I know it’s a loaded question, but I want to some things in motion

Took it, probably not a lot of worth. If you wanna get your feet wet in Azure terminology and sort of learn the offerings it's ok, but probably skip to the other certifications.

Thanks - I may just do the free course and aim for the AZ-500 instead

Yo, if I get this AWS SA Pro cert, and it doesn't move the needle, I'm gonna be mad asf:birdman::sadbron:

to be honest man, I’m not going to get mad until after this Covid stuff dies down and all of these business start to make a comeback.

I have to remind myself that it’s not 2019 and the job market is ok

anything to make myself feel better lol
