After doing a lot of research, I found this is one of the best roadmaps to learn DevOps especially if you’re planning to work with microservices.

Assuming you already have a base knowledge of Linux and basic networking:

1️⃣ Start with Docker – Learn Docker architecture, essential commands, Docker Compose, and how to build and push your images.

2️⃣ Move to Kubernetes – Understand Kubernetes architecture, pods, clusters, nodes, and kubectl/API basics.

3️⃣ Pick one cloud provider – In this case, AWS. Focus on core services like EC2, ECS, EKS, VPC, IAM, S3, and Fargate.

4️⃣ Learn Infrastructure as Code (IaC) – Study Terraform fundamentals: commands, project structure, variables, and modules.

5️⃣ Monitoring & Logging – Learn Prometheus and Grafana for observability.

AWS Services Series — AWS EC2

AWS EC2 is basically just a server in the cloud but you configure everything.

You choose the image (OS), but you install and configure things like Nginx, security groups (firewall), networking, storage, etc.
👉 Total flexibility.

💰 Pricing:
EC2 charges you per uptime from the moment the instance starts until you stop it.
Typical pricing (varies by region):
* t3.medium: ~$0.0416/hour
* Also you will be paying for storage EBS(~$0.08–$0.125 per GB/month) also Public IPV4 address

⚠️ If your instance is running idle, you STILL pay.

Whenever I am building an API, I make sure it handles these things

✅ Rate Limiting
✅ Caching
✅ Auth
✅ Validation
✅ Logging
✅ Versioning
✅ Graceful Failure

If you're just returning JSON, you're just exposing a DB.

Recommended Backend Data Flow

1. Client side HTTP request
2. Server parses request to JSON
3. Middleware checks auth
4. Controller maps routes
5. Service layer does logic
6. DB query runs
7. Response returns

Your fs should look like this

├── src/
│   ├── middleware/
│   │   └── auth.ts
│   │
│   ├── routes/
│   │   └── user.routes.ts
│   │
│   ├── controllers/
│   │   └── user.controller.ts
│   │
│   ├── services/
│   │   └── user.service.ts
│   │
│   ├── models/
│   │   └── user.model.ts
│   │
│   ├── app.ts
│   └── server.ts
│
├── package.json
└── .env
