🌍 My cloud life started with a 10-month (~600 hours) intensive training program, intensely experiencing all the necessary skills about AWS Cloud and DevOps technologies. Then, I went through a certification process, and at the end of this process, I got
Terraform(x1)andAWS(x4)certificates. I also received Microsoft Azure Cloud and GCP Cloud training. I haveAzure(x2)andGCP(x1)Cloud Training Course Certifications and Badges too. I already love the IT world and have improved myself in this field. -
📖 I publish my articles about Cloud and DevOps, especially Security and CI/CD pipelines on cumhur.akkaya
-
💬 In my GitHub repository, I am adding my projects here to reach them when I need them, and also, maybe they can be helpful to others.
-
🥅 2026 Goals: I plan to get the following certifications: "AZ-104: Azure Administrator Certification," "Google Associate Cloud Engineer Certification," and "Certified Kubernetes Administrator (CKA/CKAD)."
-
😻 Fun fact: I love to read, search, and write about Cloud/DevOps, especially regarding the challenges I encounter while doing my job. Besides this, I love to walk, ride, and fish.
