IBM Cloud Mastery Path¶

Mastery Path

BOOTCAMP

VINOD BHANUJA

A structured, module-wise IBM Cloud training program that takes you from creating your first Lite-tier account to designing production-grade, enterprise landing zones — with runnable ibmcloud CLI commands and config snippets in every module and a hands-on project at the end of each level.

How the program is organized¶

Level	Focus	Modules
Level 1 · Entry	Account setup, IAM, VPC compute, storage, networking, databases, serverless, monitoring, Schematics	9 topics + 1 project
Level 2 · Intermediate	VPC design, load balancing/auto scaling, Kubernetes Service, Code Engine, CI/CD toolchains	9 topics + 1 project
Level 3 · Advanced	OpenShift, advanced networking, security/compliance, event-driven architecture, multi-region DR	9 topics + 1 project
Level 4 · Master	Enterprise IAM, landing zones, hybrid cloud, data/AI services, FinOps, SRE	9 topics + 1 capstone

How to use this site¶

Work through each level in order — later modules assume earlier ones.
Every topic page has runnable CLI commands and config snippets — copy them into a terminal with the ibmcloud CLI installed, or into your own project.
Each level ends with a project that combines everything learned in that level.
Use the search bar (top of the page) to jump straight to a topic.
Level 1 is built entirely around the Lite (free) account tier — the capstone project includes explicit teardown steps so nothing keeps billing after you're done.
