Appendix: Getting Ready for Professional Cloud DevOps Engineer Certification

To get the most out of this book

It is recommended that you have prior knowledge on topics that include Docker, an introduction to native Kubernetes, a working knowledge of Git, getting hands on with key services on Google Cloud such as Cloud Operations, compute services, and hands-on usage of Google Cloud SDK or Cloud Shell. Additionally, hands-on knowledge of a programming language of choice such as Python, Java, or Node.js will be very useful. The code samples in this book are, however, written in Python.

If you are using the digital version of this book, we advise you to type the code yourself or access the code via the GitHub repository (link available in the next section). Doing so will help you avoid any potential errors related to the copying and pasting of code.

Irrespective of whether you are working toward the Professional Cloud DevOps Engineer certification, it is recommended to attempt the mock exam after completing all the chapters. This will be a good way to assess the learnings absorbed from the content of the book.
