• At 15:50 Knox mentions that "you don't want to use the cloud for virtual machines, you want to use it for platform."
  Can you explain what he meant by "platform?"
  Thanks in advance!

• On-prem networking is dead, do not let vendors, who sell you on-prem networking gear, tell you otherwise. If you don't learn cloud today, you will be left behind. Networking today has become "point and click" Ubiquiti gear.

• Why can't people talk without constantly saying you know?

• It's Good to see the Legend of CBT Nuggets 🙏🙏

• I have 2 year's of experience in IT executive…so iam looking to do a course, can someone guide me, which course will be better CCNA or AWS ?

• I think i lost a few brain cells, i mean, i think i gained a few brain cells or at least one new brain cell after watching this

• Stumbled over this video, it was very enlightening. I want to learn and grow but when i learn something i have no way or applying it and it gets discouraging.

• 👍🏾👍🏾

• Incredible conversation to listen to and all of the information couldn't be truer. I always find myself feeling like I'm left in the dust by friends or people I see on social media or YouTube, but in reality, unless there's a business application at my current employer for whatever it is I'm envious about, there's no reason to have those feelings because I would just be learning something to learn it and not apply it.

• I would do anything for a daily or weekly podcast with the CBTNugg crew. Keep it up y'all!

• hoping we get more and more podcasts about networking.

• Four individual perspectives and practical tips about working and training in the IT space.
  Thank You all for Sharing!

• Microsoft didn't roll the dice. They're big enough that they simply dictate what the future will be. Everyone companies have to follow because it's too expensive to migrate to a whole new unsupported service that no one is any longer qualified to support.

• As someone who, at this point in my IT career, is taking a serious look at Networking, this episode has been exceptional.

• This is a great conversation. I've worked in IT for only 4 years now, after switching from the educational system. We're a very small MSP, and I've noticed as well the FOMO runs full force. While I don't know everything, I've learned a ton from my field experience. This was an inspiring conversation! It's good to have a pragmatic approach, and I try to have that every day, but I still get caught up so easily in the "ooh shiny" parts of new tech at times haha

• nice show

• Studying for my ccna and I'm seeing that it's likely not enough by itself…

• This was probably the most useful talk on IT career path that Ive heard in 10 years. I lost my job like two years ago and the disgusting experience of applying for jobs where ever description is saturated with buzz words and technology that the business barely uses was BRUTAL. Eventually, I landed a job where the hiring manager went "Wow Im impressed with everything youve been able to accomplish this far" and was actually picked up to do Project Management because of my broad experience range. Only requirement was that I pass the PMP. Now I have an entirely different track ahead of me just because an opportunity presented itself.

• After CCNA I knew I didn’t want to be a network engineer, great networking foundation to have though. I got my CISSP instead.

• Great point, I’ve been kicking myself for not knowing python when I don’t even need it for my current job. FOMO is real in IT.

• Guys I have 2 years experience as a VMware admin. I have moved recently to Infra Design role, and i have been bombed with all these datacenter concepts and design and network concepts. Im having trouble getting to learn all that making decisions. What should do in terms of learning and preparing myself outside of work hours so i can excel at this role and learn quicker? I need some guidance. Thank you so much in advance

• Amazing discussion, definitely giving me confidence for my next cloud journey

• This is a great discussion. Thank you, lads.

• this was amazing please do more!

• Thanks Gents, interesting conversation

• Excellent conversation! What resonated with me the most was the comment that Jeff Kish made at 13:05 A lot of companies shift everything to the cloud, unaware of the costs involved. And now, a good number of them are starting to move a lot of their Workloads back On-Prem. And great point made by Kelvin; On-Prem isn't going anywhere any time soon. Private Clouds are still a thing. IMHO, Hybrid is the sweet spot. Don't feel like you have to chase after the shiniest, newest Technology all the time, remember what happened to IPX 😅? I also feel like Automation isn't for everyone and the urgency for it isn't as great as many people make it seem. Don't feel like you're missing out, but do be flexible and adapt where it's necessary. Excellent points from each one of you on the panel.
