Other than the main character being a manager, it is amazing how close this book mirrors my career path so far. This is fiction, but does a good job introducing business and cloud concepts. I would definitely recommend this for anyone in IT.
The Phoenix Project: A Novel About IT, DevOps, and Helping Your Business Win by Gene Kim
My rating: 3 of 5 stars
A story that anyone from an IT operations background can relate to.
My career has recently shifted directions. While I still have a passion for network performance and the apps that run on the network, my focus will be directed towards the cloud and the future of application performance. More specifically, I will be specializing in AWS technologies. To start that journey, I achieved the AWS Cloud Practitioner certification. I felt this certification was another test that was well done. It was a good entry level test, but still reinforced the knowledge Amazon feels you need.
