Is Your Skillset Keeping Up with the Industry?

Dear Aspiring Platform Engineer,

You've built a strong career as a network engineer, sysadmin, or even DevOps professional—but now, the landscape is shifting.

With the rise of modern tools like Kubernetes, Terraform, Backstage, and Crossplane, the role of platform engineering is becoming essential.

According to Gartner, by 2026, 80% of software engineering organizations will establish platform teams to provide reusable services, components, and tools for application delivery—up from just 45% in 2022.

Platform engineering is no longer optional; it's becoming the foundation of modern software development.

At TeKanAid Academy, we're here to make that transition smoother. Our platform engineering courses are designed to bridge the gap between where you are now and where you need to be.

You don't have to do this alone. Come join our community.

Excellent course, recommend for anyone planning to use Vault in the future. Clear explanations from the author help to understand the concepts well. I had no experience with Vault, but with the help of this course, I was able to deploy Vault in a production environment.
