[crazydeals]

Hi All,

Wanted to check with you the scope of Red Hat certified professionals in Singapore. Is there much jobs available? Is it worth taking a cloud computing certification in Red Hat?
Please share your thoughts on the same.

Unless u wanna do openstack and openshift. It rather pointless. Redhat cloud is not a market leader and alot of companies prefer Amazon Cloud Services. Pls go to jobstreet and search for the jobs that Related to RHEL, and see whether u like what is on offer. U must finish all this with 1~2months to remain relevent if u decide to go for it.

Thanks. That was a good piece of reply.
I dont have any experience in Linux. That is why I am reluctant to change track now

Yea. But my worry is if I become Vendor Specific. If I have a red hat certification, will I be able to work on other Linux versions? Will I be considered?
Another thing is I dont have any experience in Linux at all

Since you have no prior experience in linux, Have a look at basic certification such as LPIC or Essentials exam topics to get an idea what the scope of linux admins will be like :

https://www.udemy.com/linux-lpic-1-certification-complete-course/

If you are comfortable spending time in CLI, there are so many resources online to learn.

I suggest u install and try it out. Its free for 30days subscription.

Yes, will consider working with other Linux Versions. I have been to interview where the interviewers are looking for SUSE Linux and Debian when I m familiar with RHEL. Bash almost the same across all variants. Easy to pickup as well. Google for an RHCSA Ebook or youtube. Start at beginner level and slowly work on it.

Its not a track switch but capablilty to handle both Windows and Unix/Linux. You become more agile. Dont forget virtulization. I seen alot of requirement on this.
