All Chapters
Networking Fundamentals
TCP/IP, HTTP/HTTPS, DNS, ports, SSH, REST APIs, gRPC — the networking essentials every AI engineer needs for deploying and debugging distributed systems.
Linux & Shell
Linux file system, essential commands, process management, shell scripting, cron jobs, and environment variables for managing ML servers.
Docker & Containerization
Dockerfiles, images, containers, volumes, Docker Compose, GPU support, and container registries — packaging ML models for reproducible deployment.
Cloud & AWS Essentials
EC2 GPU instances, S3 for datasets, IAM security, VPC networking, Lambda serverless, SageMaker, and cost optimization for ML workloads.
CI/CD & Pipelines
Git workflows, GitHub Actions, testing, Docker builds in CI, deployment pipelines, secrets management, and ML-specific CI/CD patterns.
Orchestration & Scaling
Kubernetes pods, deployments, services, autoscaling, load balancing, Helm charts, EKS, and distributed GPU training at scale.
ML Infrastructure
Model serving with FastAPI/Triton, GPU management, experiment tracking, feature stores, data pipelines, and end-to-end MLOps workflows.
Monitoring & Observability
Structured logging, Prometheus/Grafana metrics, alerting, distributed tracing, health checks, SLOs, security, and incident response.
