What is it?
This repository is a structured learning resource for DevOps engineers who want to use AI in their work. It lays out an 18-month roadmap from DevOps Engineer toward AI Infrastructure Architect, split into three phases, and links to individual guides on topics such as building MCP servers in Go with Kubernetes, building AI agents with Go and LangChain, an SRE monitoring agent that learns what normal system behavior looks like, and AI-assisted project management with OpenClaw.
Beyond the learning path, it includes material for teams and individuals: a framework for adopting AI safely inside an organization, a set of ready-to-use prompts for daily DevOps tasks, an interview preparation guide covering AI-related DevOps questions, and tips for accelerating AWS certification study with AI tools. Several examples show AI assistants generating AWS infrastructure from natural-language requests.
The content is written in English and is sponsored by Versus Incident, an incident management project from the same maintainers.
