add networking skills to roadmap

[mostafaghadimi]

Hi @alizademhdi jan, thanks for your contribution. That’s LGTM. I wonder if it can be placed under the general software engineering skills or it should be considered as a separate topic. What’s your opinion?

[alizmhdi]

Hey Mostafa.
In general, I think networking should be classified in a different class than general software engineering skills. Because the types of problems that are currently in the general skills section of software engineering are a little different from networking.

Approved. ✅

In case of agreement, please like this message.

Thanks

I'm not sure if knowing about VPNs and firewalls is a crucial skill a data engineer should have.
BTW, I totally agree with a general knowledge of famous protocols like HTTP(S) and IP stack.

[mostafaghadimi]

@ShAlireza one thing to mention is that many organizations use MFA (Multi-Factor Authentication) to keep their infrastructure secure. If we consider the data engineers as data infrastructure providers, I think it seems reasonable for them having idea about general concepts of security like firewall. In terms of AWS, we have security groups that Data/DevOps engineers should be familiar with.

[ShAlireza]

Agree!

[mostafaghadimi]

The value of networking should be key-value based (like dictionary) or list (valid yaml format).

@alizademhdi Please change this one if it is possible for you. One suggestion could be:

Networking:
  Protocols:
    - HTTP/HTTPS
    - TCP/IP
    - SSH
    - DNS
  Concepts:    
    - VPN
    - Firewalls

[alizmhdi]

fixed :)

[niyushabaghayi]

I think adding VPN and Firewalls aren't necessary for being a Data Engineer. These names are so general and being deep to them is for other roles like SRE, Infraustructure Engineers, etc.
BTW, I agree to add a network topic with a protocols sub-title.

Well done!
