☁️ Lately, I’ve been getting really curious about cloud computing.

The more I learn about AWS, Azure, networking, automation, and cloud security, the more I realize how much there is to explore.

Coming from Help Desk and currently studying for my CCNA, I’m starting to see how the fundamentals connect to the cloud.

For someone coming from Help Desk and learning networking, which cloud skill should I prioritize first: networking, IAM, Linux, or infrastructure as code — and why?

Drop your recommendation below. 👇

I’m taking notes. 📝☁️

@Smoky_D_Bear That’s a great question!

No DHCP = devices may not get:

• Default gateway
• DNS server

That means “the internet is down” can actually be an IP configuration problem.

What’s the FIRST thing you check when a device can’t get an IP? 👇
