    How to Use This Guide

    For Structured Prep (recommended)

    1. Start with the study plan (study-plan/devops-sre-study-plan.md) — it maps out a 4-week schedule covering all five topic areas

    2. Read each topic file front-to-back — questions progress from Junior to Senior difficulty within each file

    3. Practice answering out loud — explaining technical concepts verbally is a different skill than reading about them

    4. Run the commands — spin up a VM or use a cloud free tier to actually execute the shell commands and configs shown in answers

    For Targeted Review
  • Jump to a specific topic via the [File Index](#file-index) below
  • Each file is self-contained — no need to read them in order
  • Use `Ctrl+F` / `Cmd+F` to search for specific technologies (e.g., "Terraform", "Kubernetes", "TCP")
    • For Mock Interviews

    1. Pick a random topic file

    2. Have a friend read you 5-6 questions from mixed difficulty levels

    3. Answer each one in 2-3 minutes (the way you would in a real interview)

    4. Compare your answer to the guide's answer — note what you missed

    5. Repeat with a different topic file the next day
