DOMESTIC TECHNOLOGY STACK: FROM COMPETITION TASK TO THE EDUCATIONAL PROCESS
Abstract
The article presents a case study describing an organizational and pedagogical model for incorporating a domestic technology stack into secondary vocational training in Network and System Administration. The central problem is that the requirements of a single employer do not necessarily reflect the diversity of infrastructure that graduates may encounter in professional practice. As an alternative, the article examines a skill management team bringing together experts, teachers, practicing administrators, and technology vendors. The material analyzed is a competition task for the regional stage of the Professionals Championship in the 2026–2027 cycle. The effectiveness of the model has not been tested experimentally. The task is organized into five functional layers: data transmission, operating systems and basic services, perimeter protection, data and observability, and development and operations. The products, functions, and origins of the components are summarized for each layer. The article explains how the task can be converted into curriculum alignment, a training environment, and progressively more complex practical assignments. Three forms of vendor cooperation are described: professional events, inter-organizational agreements, and regional educational sites, including examples from Armavir and Murmansk. The study concerns a single case; market figures derive from industry publications, while quantitative statements about educational coverage require independently verified records and counting rules. The expected influence of automation on the scale of specialist training is presented as a hypothesis requiring empirical testing.
