Spending this afternoon with going through the CI/CD pipeline videos „Network Automation Simplified“ from NetGru and building my own setup with it. There will be covered several topics which are important for my #DevNet Expert lab exam preparation like #Gitlab #Docker #Ansible and #pyATS. Anybody else followed along the videos? #CCDevE #CiscoCert #CiscoChampion

He's highlighting this key theme of SDLCs which is present across all domains of the DevNet Associate exam (200-901 DEVASC).

Be back on social media now while slowly recovering from my first #DevNet Expert lab attempt last Friday in Brussels which was a clear defeat... 🤕

Now I'm back on my feet 💪, taking the lessons-learned 🤓, and preparing for the next attempt. 😊 #CCDevE #CiscoCert

I had a small challenge in getting the #DevNet workstation running inside of my KVM/Qemu environment on Debian. So after I figured out what the issue was, I have a blog for completing it - https://josh-v.com/devnet-expert-workstation-on-debian/

Note, it was **not** DNS.

Check out the latest change announcements on exam topics for #Cisco #DevNet certs. Apart from Chef and Puppet to be removed, there are only minor changes and product renaming. DEVIOT and DEVWBX exams are end of life and will be retired. #CiscoCert

The changes will be effective from January 22, 2024 on for DevNet Associate, Professional Core DEVCOR and DEVOPS exams. No changes announced for the DevNet Expert. 😎 #CCDevA #CCDevP #CCDevE

Where are all the #NetEng community members in the #Fediverse to connect?

Need to find more peers. Please share!

Hope to learn something from the #Cisco partner webinar series "Python Fundamentals - Automation & Programmability for Cisco ACI". I'm always curious if there are things I haven't yet covered during my #DevNet Expert journey even if it's about fundamentals. #CCDevE #CiscoCert

Let's get some study work for #Cisco #DevNet Expert done! Final bits for the Software Design, Development, and Deployment part before returning back to the hands-on lab preparation. Wish all of you a good study & lab weekend! #CiscoCert #CCDevE

Well, it's Prime Day today, and I'm getting in on the action this year with a new desktop build, with the primary goal of running some large VMs/Arista cEOS, doing a bit more local development, and a few #DevNet studies.

I am writing on a blog post about Software Design, Development, and Deployment according to the topics from #DevNet Expert lab exam as a summary for myself. Hope to get it done before my holiday week starting on Saturday. 😅 Send me motivation! #CCDevE #CiscoCert #CiscoChampion

About a year ago my first blog contribution "Road to the Cisco Certified DevNet Professional" was published on the Cisco Learning Network. I am still feeling really honoroed after I was selected to join this group of awesome tech and community people earlier in 2022. Hope my blog post is still helpful for all DevNet Professional candidates. #CiscoCert #DevNet #CCDevP #CiscoVIP #CiscoChampion

We really need to increase the #NetEng community people and the engagement here. :ansible: :docker: :k8s: :python: :tux:

Very excited to start a new #pyATS project for automated testing and verification at a customer. I‘m happy that I can bring my passion for Network Programability and Automation more and more into customer projects and help making their work easier. #DevNet #Python

If you plan to take the #Cisco #DevNet Associate exam then I can highly recommend to watch the podcast episode from Michael Bowden. He did a really good wrap up and review of his exam attempt.

My last session at #CiscoLive will show how YANG tricks combined with NSO can make your business more agile and promote non-stop operations. Let's dive into Advanced YANG Data Modeling for Cisco NSO - DEVNET-3014. #DevNet

Get insights on how you can leverage Devnet as a platform to build automation solutions that can complement your businesses with Business Automation Using DevNet - DEVNET-2112 at the #DevNet zone Theater at #CiscoLive.

My most favorite session as a #DevNet Expert candiate with Hank Preston: Building Python Applications for DevNet Professional and Expert Candidates - LTRCRT-3100. We will be presented with a series of use cases involving building #Python applications that align to the blueprints for the Core, Expert and Concentration exams. Each exercise includes a Python related solution to a business or technical challenge. My feedback will follow soon after this 4-hour intensive lab session. Stay tuned! (3/3)

The #impostersyndrome is hitting harder than usual at the moment #devnet #ciscolive #prayforme

Another session with Story DeWeese at the #DevNet zone at #CiscoLive: Automate Cisco IOS XE Device Configuration Using Terraform - DEVLIT-2083. #Terraform will be used along with #RESTCONF and the #YANG interface to automate Cisco IOS XE device configuration.

Closing the day with Story DeWeese and Infrastructure as Code (IAC) with Catalyst 9000 - DEVNET-2119. Infrastructure as Code concepts will be demonstrated on the Catalyst 9000 using #Terraform and #Ansible playbooks alongside the #YANG Suite tooling. Very excited about it! #DevNet #CiscoLive
