A free, complete DevOps course, from your first Linux command to production Kubernetes. Every concept is an animated architecture diagram and every lesson starts with a real outage.
Most DevOps tutorials are either hour-long slide decks or cute one-minute definitions. We show the real thing: requests travelling through the architecture, things breaking, and the fix being applied.
Every concept is a living diagram. Orange dot = a request, red pulse = a failure, blue cylinder = data. Learn the language once and every new diagram makes sense.
All 160 episodes build one company, NightShift Pay: from one server in a cupboard to multi-region Kubernetes. You always know where you are on the map.
Every lesson opens with a 2AM outage, taken from 10+ years of running regulated fintech production. It's anonymised and rebuilt in a sandbox.
Every episode ends with an on-call task and 3 real interview questions. The answer opens the next episode.
A tiny payments startup has to go live before Diwali. The code runs on one server in an office cupboard. Each season, the company grows and something new breaks, and you learn the DevOps skill that fixes it.
8 episodes, each about 6 minutes. Watch them in order, because every episode answers the last one's on-call task.
Each season is a YouTube playlist, and each one starts with a problem NightShift Pay hits as it grows.
