Wow, my android spell checker hates me. 

In short, LPIc DevOps could be more interesting/best-selling like this: 

- LPIc 1: common Linux Ground 

 - DevOps Essentials (Docker, Git, CD/CI theory, Blue/Green deployments,
Vagrant?, etc...). About 30h-40h training, just enough to get ready for
DevOps, containers, service-discovery and clouds. 

 - DevOps for Programmers: focus on modern software and CD/CI, whilst
just being able to spin up/down vagrant/k8s services and so on. Here you
should get fluent enough to lead your team of developers into the DevOps
world, but it's not your duty to bring up a K8s cluster with all the
log-concentration and metrics, just use it. About 40h's of training. 

 - DevOps for Sysadmins: focus on infrastructure, metrics, log
management and monitoring. Meant to upgrade Linux Sysadmins into DevOps
technologies. Something like 40h's as well. 

In each path you should get the basic points of the other DevOps group,
so you can work together, but for me it's quite clear that I'm a
sysadmin and I'm responsible to provide a stable platform with lots of
sensors and log management, but I will not deal with Jenkins unless
something went really wrong and developers ask me to check it with them.


I need to be able to push/pull from GIT, but I'm not expected to deal
with several branches + integration issues, if I ever bump into such a
problem, google or a workmate will help me. 

Otherwise we've a certification with too many hard topics which almost
no one is going to require in his/her job.
