Curated official documentation, free training and certification paths from the 22 vendors and standards bodies we trust most.

Networking & Security

  • Cisco — The backbone of enterprise networks. Cisco Systems builds the routers, switches, firewalls and collaboration tools that power most of the world's enterprise networks. Their official documentation, free Networking Academy and certification tracks (CCNA, CCNP, CCIE) are the gold standard for IT careers.

Cloud Providers

  • Amazon Web Services — The world's most adopted cloud platform. AWS offers 200+ services across compute, storage, networking, databases, AI/ML and security. Free Tier, official documentation and AWS Skill Builder make it accessible for individuals and enterprises alike.
  • Microsoft Azure — Microsoft's cloud for the enterprise. Azure powers Microsoft 365, Dynamics, and millions of enterprise workloads. Deep integration with Active Directory / Entra ID makes it the natural choice for Microsoft-centric organizations.

This page collects the official documentation, admin consoles and free training across all of them.

DevOps & Containers

  • Docker — The container platform developers love. Docker popularized containers and remains the default local dev workflow for containerized apps. Docker Desktop, Compose and Hub form a complete toolchain for building and shipping images.
  • Kubernetes — The open-source container orchestrator. Kubernetes (k8s) is the CNCF-graduated standard for running containerized workloads at scale. Every major cloud offers a managed flavor (EKS, AKS, GKE).
  • HashiCorp — Infrastructure automation toolchain. HashiCorp builds Terraform (IaC), Vault (secrets), Consul (service mesh) and Packer (images) — the de-facto stack for modern infrastructure teams.
  • GitHub — Where the world builds software. GitHub hosts code for over 100M developers and provides Actions for CI/CD, Codespaces for cloud dev environments, and Copilot for AI pair programming.

Security Standards

  • OWASP — The open application security community. The Open Worldwide Application Security Project produces the famous Top 10, ASVS, ZAP scanner and dozens of cheat sheets — all free and vendor-neutral.
  • NIST — U.S. federal cybersecurity standards. The National Institute of Standards and Technology publishes the Cybersecurity Framework (CSF) and the SP 800 series — the foundation of most enterprise security programs.

Programming & Web

  • MDN Web Docs — The reference for the open web. Maintained by Mozilla and a global community, MDN is the definitive reference for HTML, CSS, JavaScript and Web APIs.
  • Python — Batteries-included programming language. Python powers data science, AI, web backends and automation. The official docs and PEP index are the canonical references.
  • PostgreSQL — The world's most advanced open-source RDBMS. PostgreSQL combines SQL standards compliance with powerful extensions (PostGIS, pgvector, TimescaleDB). It is the database behind most modern startups.

ERP & Business Systems

  • SAP — S/4HANA, BTP and the enterprise process backbone. SAP runs the finance, supply chain and manufacturing processes of most large enterprises. Modern SAP work centres on S/4HANA (on-prem, private and public cloud editions), the Business Technology Platform (BTP) for extensions and integration, Fiori for UX, and ABAP Cloud / CAP for development. This page collects the official help portal, developer tutorials, free learning journeys and certification paths.
  • Oracle — Database, Fusion Cloud Applications and OCI. Oracle spans three worlds an IT team usually touches at once: the Oracle Database (19c/21c/23ai, RAC, Data Guard, Autonomous), Fusion Cloud Applications (ERP, HCM, SCM, NetSuite) and Oracle Cloud Infrastructure.
