Hey Dev.to Community 👋

My name is Faith Omobude, an aspiring Cloud/DevOps Engineer with a passion for building robust, scalable infrastructure solutions.

A bit about myself: I'm a Chemistry graduate with a background in Content writing and Digital marketing. Before I began my journey in Cloud, I worked as a social media manager at Cubithost. While researching and creating tech-related content, I kept coming across topics related to cloud computing.

Initially, it was simply curiosity.

I wanted to understand how modern applications scale and get deployed so smoothly across the world. How do apps stay available? How does everything "just work" behind the scenes?

That curiosity slowly turned into a hands-on journey of learning and building with cloud technologies, and that's how my Cloud and DevOps journey really began.

Why I created this Blog?

I created this account to document my journey in DevOps and Cloud, and more importantly, to break down complex concepts in a way beginners (like me) can understand.

Because let's be honest, DevOps can feel overwhelming. There are:

Too many tools,
Too much hype and
Too many tutorials that assume you already "get it".

I'm not here to pretend I know everything.
I'm here to learn in public, share what I build, explain what I understand, and be honest about what I don't.

Writing helps me clearly, and if it helps someone else along the way, that's a win.

What You Can Expect From this Blog

I'll be writing about:

🧠 Beginner-friendly explanations of Cloud, DevOps, and related concepts
🔨 Projects I'm working on, including what breaks and what I learn
💡 Mental models, not just commands and configurations
🔥 Honest opinions on tools, trends, and industry hype
📈 Career and learning insights for people just starting out

My goal is simple:

Make confusing things feel approachable.

Who This is For

This blog is mainly for:

Beginner learning Cloud or DevOps
Developers transitioning into DevOps
Anyone tired of overcomplicated explanations

If that sounds like you, welcome 🤗

If you ever disagree with something I write, or have a better way of thinking about it, I'd love to hear from you. Learning is better when it's shared.

Looking forward to connecting and collaborating with you.
