Dear all, I'm sure you already saw the news but I wanted to send out a reminder that we currently have a Job Task Analysis running for a new certification called "LPI Certified Open Technology DevOps Engineer".
In 2016 we talked a lot about automation tools, container virtualization, cloud computing and several other technologies that affect what our candidates are doing in their jobs. At the same time, the environment and organization of these jobs start to change, bringing more and more tools into a sysadmin's daily life and more and more sysadmin tasks into developer's work. To react on this continuous movement, we'd like to create a dedicated certification focusing on the open source tools commonly used to work in a DevOps environment. The target audience is both Dev and Ops, therefore the certification should be seen as a complement to either an LPI or a development certification. We put some more information on the new certification online here: http://www.lpi.org/devops The JTA is available here: https://xd.lpi.org/caf/Xamdev/jta You'll need an LPI-ID to join the JTA (available at https://cs.lpi.org/caf/Xamman/register), but I'm sure most of you already have one. The JTA is an online survey that helps us to determine which skills are actually relevant and should be covered in the certification. In January, we'll discuss the potential objectives based on the outcome of the JTA on the lpi-examdev list. Nevertheless, go ahead and share your thoughts whenever you like! Also, if you have Dev or DevOps people who are not involved in LPI yet, please don't hesitate to share this with them. It's important to get their feedback in the JTA too! Looking forward to the JTA's results and your feedback, Fabian
