You can say smithing like, “weird to see Linux admin, instead of OS admin”. But doesn’t make sense in a business context, if you want a Linux admin.

- _bxg1 7y agoThe difference is that Linux isn't owned by a single company. It runs on virtually every platform, including all of these hosting providers.
- detaro 7y agoWindows Admin vs OS Admin then.
- sitkack 7y agoBingo! There isn't a cloud OS and then an standards-ish implementation of that standard. All of the clouds are bespoke and closed source. That said, nothing weird about needing specific knowledge for running on the specific thing. If I run a motorpool that is all Prius, then I'll want Prius mechanics.
- yowlingcat 7y agoAt some point, I think I hoped that Kubernetes would be that "cloud OS" but as time passes, I'm not sure that's going to happen and I continue to make sure I stay abreast of the various closed source cloud ecosystems, including AWS which has served me reliably for over a decade.
- skrebbel 7y agoSo if it's owned by a single company you can't list it as a skill? Huh?
