Greetings Internet

Intro

Hello and welcome! My name is Brandon Zazza, and I’m a recent graduate of the Rochester Institute of Technology with a strong focus on DevOps, cloud computing, and infrastructure engineering. I’m passionate about building reliable systems, automating workflows, and understanding how modern cloud platforms operate at scale. While DevOps is my core specialty, I genuinely enjoy learning anything that expands my technical skill set, from networking and security to new tools and frameworks.

If you’re reading this, congratulations, you’ve found my blog. This site is my personal space to document projects, experiments, and real-world lessons learned while working with cloud technologies and on-prem infrastructure. You’ll find posts covering topics such as AWS and Azure architecture, CI/CD pipelines, automation with scripting, home lab builds, security tooling, and practical troubleshooting guides.

The purpose of this blog is both personal and professional. On a personal level, it serves as a living knowledge base where I can keep clear, detailed documentation of my work and track my growth over time. From a professional standpoint, my goal is to share insights that may help students, early-career engineers, and fellow technologists who are navigating DevOps, cloud computing, or systems administration.

Throughout the year, I plan to publish step-by-step tutorials, architecture breakdowns, tool comparisons, and honest reflections on what works, what doesn’t, and why. I believe the best way to truly understand a concept is to explain it clearly, so my focus will always be on practical, approachable content backed by real experience.

Thanks for stopping by and taking the time to read. If something here helps you learn, solve a problem, or think differently about technology, then this blog has done exactly what it set out to do.
