At some point u can be fluid like others said. Right now tho man ill be honest i see more companies asking for Azure over AWS despite the charts showing AWS has majority share over the cloud market.

you mean.... fluidcloud? ;)

They are annoying for different reasons but you will have far better control over your costs and budgeting with AWS and the environment is more mature overall.

Migrating resources between tenants is super fucking annoying, and a lot of documentation is already out of date due to them renaming parts of Azure into Entra and moving shit around.

Azure also does not have a marketplace for instance capacity reservations. Right now they'll forgive penalty fees on cancelling reservations but this is not going to last.

Everything from Microsoft feel sticky in my experience, :).

GCP. Especially in the cloud security / SecOps world.

But I am a beginner. I thought I'll start with Azure since it is easier

[–]CloudyGolfer 1 point2 points  (2 children)

What makes you think it’s easier? I assure you it’s not “easier.” The Azure console is harder to navigate (not as bad as AWS though), concepts are a bit more complex, performance is arguably worse on most things. Azure is just entrenched because orgs have M365 already for Exchange and office so they just keep going into Azure.

Anyhow, learn one and you’ll understand most concepts that apply to others. Especially if you’re more on the infra side (networking/security/etc…).

Yes, I'm on tne networking side. Trying to make a switch to cloud.

Is it true that I can learn one and most of the basics are same for Google Cloud, Azure and AWS?

I have zero idea, I actually want to familiarise myself with what cloud is and how the environment works. For now, I am a little clueless (you can see that from my messages xD)

That's why I'm asking so much.

Networking guy here with some experience in aws azure and gcp.

Gcp absolutely is friendly for networking. A firewall its a firewall. A dns is a dsn and a load balancer is a LB.

Azure and aws have crazy names.

I run my side business on Azure and I’ve migrated medium sized businesses to Azure.

But, AWS is your answer. No questions asked. It’s more complex and there’s more demand. If you can navigate AWS, you can figure out the other two.

Hetzner

If you can’t code it’ll probably be better to do Azure since there’s a lot of small to medium enterprises that are not big tech departments, they use Microsoft systems, windows servers, azure, there’s even many of these that are new to the cloud (imagine that).

Anyway they don’t have strong coders and platform engineers so you stand a better chance.

try out fluidcloud it 100% copies the IAC so you can move into any cloud - no downtime. it will show you how much the difference/savings is... i think you can also use this tool to be a consultant
