I’m trying to get a job in IT that will (hopefully) pay more than a usual 9 to 5. I’m been daily driving Linux exclusively for about 2 1/2 years now and I’m trying to improve my skills to the point that I could be considered a so-called “power user.” My question is this: will this increase my hiring chances significantly or marginally?
Deploy database? You mean something like SQL?
Yep. You should absolutely know how all the pieces connect.
One IT responsibility is setting up servers. You should at least know how to get a website running off of a Linux machine at a basic level. But what we judge you on is your ability to manage and secure it.
Yeah, or a nosql database. The point is to know how to deploy and manage servers manually as well as using the tools to do it.
