DevOps Internship Projects and Case Studies in Bangalore

Introduction

Bangalore 2025 — A DevOps internship is only as good as the project you can show on your GitHub and talk about in interviews.

Recruiters at Flipkart, Swiggy, PhonePe, and Goldman Sachs don’t care about “I followed a YouTube tutorial”. They want to see:

• Production-grade architecture diagrams
• Real impact metrics (e.g., “reduced deployment time from 45 mins to 3 mins”)
• Clean, well-documented GitHub repos with READMEs that impress
• Projects that mirror their actual stack

Below are the exact projects & case studies from interns who got ₹22–35 LPA full-time offers in 2024–2025 — all from Bangalore internships. Every project is 100% replicable in 30–45 days. Start with solid foundations using proper package management on your EC2 instances.
