Trace Any System Problem to Its Root
You'll understand how a request travels from a user's browser all the way to a database and back. When something breaks, you'll know exactly where to look — DNS, networking, server, application, or database.

WHO IS THIS FOR ?
You Don't Need to Know Anything Yet. That's Exactly Why This Exists.
Most DevOps programs assume you already understand how servers work, what a network is, or why a database matters. Most beginners don't — and that's not a failure, that's just where most people start. DevOps Ground Zero is built for people who are willing to put in the work but need someone to build the foundation with them first.This program is for you if you are:

Training You Can Find Anywhere. An Experience Like This? You Won't.
Mentorship
Every student gets direct access to Vishal and he senior team. Not a chatbot, not a TA — the actual expert who will oversee your foundation.
Offline Training Available
Prefer to learn in-person? Our Mumbai facility offers offline batches with dedicated lab infrastructure and direct face-to-face mentorship.
Small Cohort Sizes
We cap batches intentionally. Smaller cohorts mean more attention, faster feedback, and a learning environment that actually works — not a lecture hall experience.
Hands-On Every Session
Every concept is followed by a practical exercise. You don't just hear about Linux — you use it. You don't just learn about Nginx — you configure it.
DevOps-Relevant Only
No OSI model deep dives. No compiler theory. No content that won't matter in your first SysOps or DevOps role. Every minute of this program is intentional.
A Clear Path Forward
Ground Zero feeds directly into a DevOps or SysOps career. By the time you finish, you'll know exactly where you stand and what your next step looks like.
Not toy projects. Not sandbox tutorials. The exact toolchain that production-grade companies run on.

Frequently Asked Questions
Yes. DevOps Ground Zero was specifically built for people starting from scratch. If you're comfortable using a laptop and you're willing to put in the effort, you're ready. We start from how the internet works and build up from there. No prior knowledge is assumed or required.
YouTube gives you fragments. This program gives you a complete, sequenced foundation with a trainer who can answer your questions, correct your understanding in real time, and make sure nothing falls through the gaps. You also get hands-on lab practice every session — something no tutorial can replicate. And at the end, you have a clear picture of how everything connects, not just isolated concepts.
The program fee is between ₹25,000 inclusive of all taxes. Final pricing is discussed during your counselling call based on batch and format. EMI options are available — ask our team for details at the time of enrolment.
We offer both offline batches at our Goregaon West, Mumbai facility and online batches. Weekday and weekend options are available to suit working professionals and students. Current schedules are shared during your counselling call. Batches are kept small by design — seats fill up quickly.
After completing Ground Zero, you'll be equipped to pursue roles as a SysOps Engineer or Systems Administrator. Many students also continue directly into DevOps Sprint to build on this foundation and move into senior DevOps roles.
Absolutely — that's one of the core purposes of Ground Zero. By the time you complete this program, everything in DevOps Sprint — containers, cloud, CI/CD, Kubernetes — will make complete sense. Students who go through Ground Zero before Sprint consistently progress faster and with significantly more confidence than those who start Sprint cold.
Yes. You'll receive a program completion certificate from Nixace Technologies along with a summary of topics and hands-on exercises completed. More importantly, you'll have the actual knowledge — which is what employers and the next program will test you on.
It depends on how solid your foundation is. Most support professionals know parts of this material but have significant gaps in how everything connects together. If you're unsure, have a conversation with our team. We'll give you an honest answer about whether Ground Zero is the right starting point or whether you're ready to go straight into DevOps Sprint.
Are you going to keep putting it off — or are you going to start?
Every week you wait is a week someone else — with your same background, your same starting point — spends building the foundation you're still missing. The next batch fills fast. Seats are limited by design.
