What I Learned

  • Understood DevOps as a cultural change, not just Dev and Ops working together
  • Built knowledge of shared responsibility, transparency, and embracing failure as core DevOps values
  • Learned Continuous Integration and Continuous Delivery (CI/CD) for frequent, high-quality deployments
  • Explored Infrastructure as Code, Test Driven Development, and Behavior Driven Development
  • Understood cloud-native microservices and building resilient, independently deployable code
  • Learned to break down organizational silos and work in cross-functional teams
  • Applied social coding practices: shared repositories, pair programming, and community-driven development
  • Worked in small batches and produced minimum viable products for rapid feedback
