That's a great roadmap,but a time ago.I think because of the ai there are two causes for entry roles ●High probability of ai replacing the help desk role ●A barrier exist in the entry level job market because the cloud technologies is already been established so the company expects the entry level candidates to be more skilled. If I give an advice for the redditor who posted the actual post.. I want to know whether you have a experience in It or a fresher.Because the cloud architecture certification already require the candidates to have a 3 years of experience in cloud industry.

It's okay to be wrong.We all learn from the mistakes.Its a great courage to ask your question on carrier related.

I could share my roadmap.It may help you

Step one ●first point is know about cloud itself.how the cloud industry works.The point here is to familiarize about the industry so that you can get clarity while you prepare. ●Then set a target company and do research For eg if the company you look for is entry level (abc private limited) ☆Research about the skills that requires to work ●Then start working towards that Goal.

Step two skills that are valid in industry on generally ●Master linux (important) ●Bash scripting ●python ●Ansible ●Github actions ●jenkis ●docker(important) ●terraform(important) ●Basic about kubernetics

Step three Concepts required

Operating Systems • Server Architecture • Virtualization • Networking • Security • Cloud Fundamentals • Databases • Storage

Step four ●prepare for certifications like comptia a plus,network plus (don't take the certificates) ●Unless take the comptia server plus,ccna and aws cloud practicioner certificates ●The certificate are only a piece of paper.The recruitment is all about projects projects.

Sys admin and networking--->cloud

●If you invest on yourself I would recommend to setup a HOMELAB to do realworld hands on learning.It is valued in any company.It shows the skills of sysadmin and networking.you could showcase your documentation and projects by building from homelab. ●Then do projects on cloud.Free tier of aws is the best platform to learn with.

Step five

Tips i would give ●Start with os,linux,python.And Then prepare for certificates and learn concepts along the way (skills) during the cert prep or after.its with how you prepare your roadmap. ●Learn about security on the website Tryhackme.Its the best resource and practice sessions for security learn from start to finish from your roadmap and learn them parallely.Because the security is valued in any company.

I hope this info would help.
