Learner stories
Hear it from people who have done it.
We publish filmed interviews rather than written quotes, so you can judge for yourself. Not every batch has a filmed story yet, and we would rather point you at the channel than invent one.
Watch the filmed interviews
Our YouTube channel carries unscripted interviews with learners who finished a Cokonet course and moved into an SAP, data, cloud or design role. Nobody in them is an actor, and we do not put words in anyone's mouth.
Open the channel →Talk to someone who took this course
The placement team can put you on a call with a DevOps on AWS learner who is now working in the field, so you can ask about the syllabus, the trainers and the interviews without a counsellor in the middle.
Ask for an introduction →What these roles actually pay
Rather than quote one person's package, the career table lower down sets out the roles this course leads to year by year, with indicative pay compiled from public 2025-26 market data and switchable by market.

Why now
Why cloud and DevOps, and why now.
Every application a company builds must run somewhere, reliably and cheaply, and the engineers who make that happen are structurally scarce. Cloud spend keeps growing, platforms keep multiplying, and DevOps sits at the choke point of all of it.
90%+Enterprises on cloud
Migration is done; operating well is the permanent job that follows.
#2Hardest role to hire
DevOps consistently ranks among the hardest engineering roles to fill.
K8sThe default platform
Kubernetes fluency separates junior tickets from real platform work.
Why it is a smart move for you
Ops-minded, not slideware
You break and fix real servers; the mindset transfers to any stack.
The full toolchain
Linux to Terraform to K8s to CI/CD, sequenced the way teams actually adopt them.

Bridges from sysadmin and support

FAQ
The questions people actually ask.
If yours isn't here, a counsellor answers it on a 20-minute call.
Do I need to be a developer to learn DevOps? +
No. DevOps grew out of operations. Linux comfort and systematic thinking matter most; we teach the scripting you need. Developers gain deployment superpowers; sysadmins convert directly.
Should I take DevOps on AWS or the AWS Cloud course? +
They are two separate courses for two different jobs. DevOps on AWS is the delivery track: Linux, Docker, Kubernetes, Terraform, CI and CD, and shipping code to production repeatedly. AWS Cloud is the architecture track: designing the account structure, the network, the availability model, the storage tiering and the cost envelope, then defending those decisions to a client. If you want to build and run pipelines, stay here. If you want to design the platform, take AWS Cloud. A counsellor will tell you honestly which one fits.
Which cloud do you teach, and why AWS? +
AWS, because it holds the largest share of Indian job postings and its concepts transfer to Azure and GCP. The Terraform module makes you portable across clouds by design.
Which certifications does the course prepare me for? +
AWS Solutions Architect Associate (SAA-C03) with full mock exams, plus the Terraform Associate pathway. Exams are booked with AWS and HashiCorp and charged separately.
What is the starting salary in cloud and DevOps? +
Junior cloud engineers typically start between Rs 4 and 7 lakh. With two to three years and Kubernetes ownership, Rs 7 to 14 lakh is common, and platform seniors go far beyond.
Is Kubernetes really necessary for a first job? +
Increasingly yes for the better roles. Many juniors get hired on AWS + Docker + CI/CD, but K8s fluency is what separates ticket-takers from platform engineers, so we teach it properly.
Will I practise on real cloud infrastructure? +
Yes. You work in real AWS accounts within guarded budgets, break and rebuild environments, and finish with Terraform-provisioned architecture and a pipeline that deploys on push.
Is it online or classroom, and is Malayalam support available? +
Both. In-person batches in Trivandrum, Kochi and Bengaluru, plus live online batches across Kerala and the GCC. Sessions are in clear English with Malayalam support.
Do you guarantee a job after the course? +
No, and we will not pretend otherwise. We provide structured placement support and real introductions across 400+ corporate partners, with support continuing six months after you finish.

Hear it from them
Watch our learners tell their own story
Building pipelines or designing the platform?
DevOps on AWS is the delivery track: Linux, Docker, Kubernetes, Terraform and CI/CD. AWS Cloud is the architecture track: IAM and account design, VPC networking, high availability, storage tiering, the Well-Architected Framework and the cost model. Two separate courses, and neither replaces the other.
Prefer a classroom batch?
AWS DevOps also runs at our centres, with the same trainers and placement support.
