If you're pursuing a SysOps Administration career, it's very important to be familiar with the common commands to get around in the Linux system. I always tend to forget these commands so I'm writing them down as my personal reference.
Basic
Intermediate
- Get the system OS
cat /etc/os-release
- Show Linux Kernel Version
[root@ip-100-104-110-48 karina.alvarado]# uname -r

Considering most of the activity in containerized and CI/CD environments occurs in Linux, yeah you do need to know it. In fact, almost all of the major DevSecOps tools out there are only available in Linux containers. AWS defaults to Linux as well. Navigating in Linux is essential to a DevOps engineer's existence.
