In today's digital economy there's a lot of communication about how companies will become obsolete and close their doors if they don't adapt and change. It turns out this is true for IT professionals as well.
For over two decades, IT Operations has mostly stayed the same. Professionals would rack and stack servers, physically wire networks and configure firewalls, and run a script here and there to address a service ticket. This world is dramatically changing! The world of server computing has evolved so that physically tinkering with hardware is quickly approaching obsolescence. The trend that has been growing and the technical direction that makes the most sense when describing and dealing with cloud resources is code.
In this webinar, we discuss the skills and thinking that will be necessary to keep your job as companies, methodologies, and best practices all shift left. We aim to help you make a smart transition. No IT professional need to lose their job if they're willing to adapt and to learn.
