Those new to the Cloud and DevOps world often find it difficult to start their journey due to missing basic prerequisites. For example, issues with setting up a basic lab environment using VirtualBox, networking issues, or working with the Linux CLI or text editors like vi editor. Sometimes, it's issues with applications – like getting a sample application to work, getting the dependencies to install properly, or getting a webserver to communicate with a database server. Or at other times, it's working with data formats like JSON or YAML.
