Frequently asked questions

The questions new learners ask most often.

Is TheCloudOps Community really free?
Yes. Every course, roadmap, and event on TheCloudOps Community is free. There is no premium tier, no upsell, and no paywalled content. Courses are hosted on YouTube and we link directly to the playlists.
Which roadmap should I start with as a beginner?
If you're new to cloud and DevOps, start with the Linux roadmap, then move to a single cloud provider (AWS, Azure, or GCP — pick one based on the job market in your region). Once you're comfortable, follow the Docker → Kubernetes → CI/CD → Terraform sequence. The DevOps Engineer role-based roadmap stitches these together end-to-end.
Do I get a certificate after completing a course?
TheCloudOps Community courses don't issue a paid certificate, but they prepare you for industry certifications like CKA, CKAD, CKS, AZ-900, and GCP Associate Cloud Engineer. The CKA and AZ-900 roadmaps are designed specifically for certification prep.
