Hi Anil,

It's great that you're interested in learning DevOps, especially with a focus on networking and Cisco technologies! For beginners, a good place to start is by understanding the core concepts of DevOps, such as CI/CD, Infrastructure as Code (IaC), and automation.

Here are a few resources that can help:

Cisco DevNet: Cisco offers a variety of courses through their DevNet platform, which is specifically designed for networking professionals looking to learn DevOps tools and practices. You’ll find resources on automation, network programmability, and how to use tools like Ansible, Python, and Cisco's APIs.

Edureka: Both platforms have beginner-friendly courses on DevOps with a focus on networking. Look for courses that cover network automation with tools like Ansible and CI/CD pipelines.

Kubernetes and Networking: If you're diving into cloud networking, understanding Kubernetes networking components can be beneficial. Consider exploring courses on container networking and cloud-native environments.

Ansible for Network Engineers: Since you’re looking at networking, learning Ansible for automating network configurations can be invaluable. There are many free resources online as well as paid courses.
