    To start with, Linux.

    Then, cloud systems, configuration management, and SDLC.

    Since you are coming from an administrator role with Win/VM. I would recommend starting with Ansible, it uses YAML to build playbooks and its modules work very well with VMware and AWS. I would then move on to integrating other tools like github and jenkins for version control and continuous delivery/continuous integration. Get familiar with SDLC and how 'Infrastructure as Code' makes deploying applications faster.

    LinuxAcademy probably has the best courses to learn DevOps.
