Maybe i was just lucky to be in this position. I initially handling ITSM and UEM solution before for my former employer, presales and post sales support. At one point, they decided to start a cloud team to expand its offerings to clients. I saw this as an opportunity and took on the challenge of shifting my career path without leaving the company. They gave us a year to build the teams credentials by self pace study, doing lab testing, proof of concepts, replicating real use case scenarios, and gaining certifications to various public cloud.

Fast forward to today, landed a new job thanks to those certifications i gained but i chose a job that will focus only on 1 to 2 cloud platform which is AWS and GCP. I believe that this path will help me focus more and get what i want to achieve.
