I’m Joshua TecDev Walker, sitting at the intersection of practical AI tooling, automation workflows, and cloud infrastructure. I’m an Army veteran, AWS Community Builder, and the person people call when Kubernetes, IAM, VPCs, networking, Terraform, or certification paths start sounding like alphabet soup. JWTechDev.ai turns confusing systems into clear, usable steps.
Plain-English explainers for cloud basics, AWS certification, portfolio projects, creator-owned web infrastructure, and the guardrails that make AI-assisted workflows safe enough to use.
A public-source POV on why AgentCore Gateway support for MCP 2026-07-28 is a signal that agent tooling is becoming cloud infrastructure.
A troll comment becomes a useful whiteboard lesson on why MCP and APIs are related, but not the same layer.
A plain-English breakdown of why MCP moved away from sessions and what that teaches builders about AI tools, cloud scale, and explicit context.
A practical roadmap for moving from security fundamentals to cloud security and AI workflow risk, with AWS runbooks.
Start with identity, networking, compute, storage, and monitoring, then pair the fundamentals with one portfolio project so the knowledge turns into proof.
Pick the certification based on your background, then pair the study plan with one project so the badge turns into proof.
Real workflows need identity, permissions, storage, logs, approval gates, and recovery before any tool gets access.
A strong project proves your thinking: working artifact, architecture, security, cost, monitoring, and a clear README.
Own the website, own the list, keep content portable, and use social platforms as distribution instead of headquarters.
Use clear lanes, trusted context, approval gates, browser verification, and a status trail so tool-assisted work stays useful.
Short-form explainers, career guidance, AWS concepts, cloud architecture breakdowns, and quick takes on what builders should actually pay attention to.
AWS projects, cloud infrastructure, career pivots, and practical breakdowns for people who want the concept and the next step. AI shows up where it depends on real systems: permissions, logs, storage, routing, and rollback.
