Kubernetes, DevOps and SRE the right way | @TechWorldwithNana | Beyond Coding Podcast #91

What stuck with me from this chat with Nana Janashia is that curiosity and hunger for learning & sharing will bring you further than anything else. In her case, learning Kubernetes and AWS and sharing that knowledge eventually lead to becoming Docker Captain, AWS Hero & CNCF Ambassador. Those were never goals, but always a result of focussing on efforts. In doing so she managed to grow a YouTube community of 700k subs.
