## Phase 1: The Foundation (Linux & Networking)

You cannot build a skyscraper on a swamp. In DevOps, Linux is your bedrock. In 2026, recruiters in Bangalore expect more than just knowing `ls` or `cd`. You must understand Shell Scripting, SSH Key Management, and Process Monitoring.

#### Key Skills:

- Package Management (APT/YUM)
- Systemd & Service Management
- Bash Automation Scripts
- TCP/IP, DNS, and HTTP/S Fundamentals

## Phase 2: Modern Deployment (Docker & K8s)

Virtual Machines are legacy. Containers are the now. Mastery of Docker for building images and Kubernetes (K8s) for orchestrating those images is the difference between a ₹6L salary and a ₹15L salary in Bangalore.

## Phase 3: Automated Infrastructure (Terraform & Ansible)

In 2026, manual configuration is a firing offense. Infrastructure must be code. Terraform allows you to "provision" servers with script files, while Ansible "configures" them. This synergy is the hallmark of a Senior DevOps Engineer.
