I hope you're not calling *me* old...
The positive aspect of being "old" is rather than having to understand the meaning of new terms like AutoOps, I can simply resort to Google and "prompt" it for a definition that makes sense. See https://www.autoops.com/ .......

The CompTIA AutoOps course is a great choice for students and learners in 2025 and beyond. IT operations are evolving with automation and AI-driven tools. This course helps learners gain hands-on experience in automating IT processes, managing cloud environments, and improving operational efficiency.
These skills are in high demand across industries. As businesses rely more on hybrid cloud systems and DevOps practices, professionals who understand automation frameworks and IT orchestration are more appealing in the job market. With CompTIA AutoOps, learners can prepare for roles such as
automation engineer, cloud operations specialist, systems administrator, IT support engineer, and DevOps analyst. To build a strong foundation before diving into automation-focused learning, many students start with CompTIA Cloud Essentials+. This course provides a solid understanding of fundamental cloud concepts, governance, and business impact. It's a perfect starting point for those new to the cloud and automation ecosystem. In 2025 and the years ahead, companies will continue to prioritize cloud-based automation to boost performance, cut costs, and improve agility.

This looks fantastic !!
 
I applied and it said I was too old. :) Apparently the Unix and DEC gave me away.
DEC? That's not old, that crosses into "venerable" territory, but only *slightly* before my time.

Ask Google? Heh... one can only speculate what you might get from Google's form of Skynet, brother. You might have better luck with desiccated chicken bones on a trash can lid.

Lol. I'm older than you!
Exactly my point. Although my creaky self still has to do the gym 3x per week, lest I am reduced to a pile of dust with a black fedora sitting thereupon.

We both are... now get off my lawn!
Yeah, that's geezer speak for sure. But I can't say that. Living in a dry climate like Colorado means I either to take out a mortgage on my house to water my dirt and weeds, or allow it to become "natural-scaped".
