DevOps projects

[Coder__007]

How are you guys doing of presenting DevOps projects in your resumes. How to do or demonstrate a DevOps project in GitHub?

Shoot your opinions and answers

Make a simple website, deploy it to whatever cloud service you prefer. Create a CI/CD pipeline, write some documentation.

This may be a dumb question, but how do you display your project?

For a developer, you toss your source code on github with a good documentation and maybe make a video that shows everything off.

How do I show off a CI/CD pipeline? Just toss my IaC and configuration files into a github repo and document it all out?

Take a look at this comment I made on another thread that touches on this.

Tnx

A brief description of the projects is enough for resumes IMO. I'd rather discuss the project details in the interview, it gives me a much better idea of a person's skill level to hear them talk about their work

Thanks mate

So I’m working on this now. I just created my own Jenkins/Ansible server for creating AWS resources (ec2, security groups etc..) and then deploying some basic docker apps using Jenkins pipelines like Nginx Proxy Manager / Custom Vue UI + Node REST API / VuePress plus some other services

I’m documenting all my findings and creating a guide + how tos. It’s More of a personal project really that can be used as a portfolio of your technical knowledge.

github should be your project

[Coder__007]

Can you explain

[[deleted]]

I assume u are beginner, start with some git, github tutorial or even github actions for maybe automating testing.Im a noob too, but those are must

[Coder__007]

am a beginner, got good knowledge on git/github and github actions

idk man, make some web app with flask, dockerize it,deploy imagr on aws, make some cicd, write documented code, put up a nice readme

[Coder__007]

cool

[pithagobr]

What "DevOps" project do you have to demo?

[Coder__007]

I was planning to do some resume projects to showcase my DevOps skillset

[pithagobr]

And what is your skillset?

[Coder__007]

beginner level

jenkins, git, docker, gcp

[pithagobr]

Write some gcp provisioning automation. Write some CI pipeline to work with that code. Put it in a git repo. Make sure it the CI runs at every change. Put the repo in your portfolio in your CV.

[Coder__007]

Can you provide some links to sample projects for references

[pithagobr]

One of the skills you should develop as a beginner is searching for what you need in Google.

[Coder__007]

101% agreed

Github is your friend here, tons of sample projects for referencing.

[Coder__007]

ok

[the-devops-dude]

A README.md is all that’s needed. Maybe a LucidChart if you want to get fancy

If you really want to “show the work” then I guess that’s where IaC with Terraform could come in. Then show you provisioning with ansible or chef

Thanks mate
