I graduated from Computer Engineering this year and am yet to get a job. I want to get into DevOps/Admin roles and know linux, containers, vms etc.

I'm thinking of getting certs for one of the major cloud platforms in order to get job opportunities, and am confused as to which one to pick and learn.

AWS:

I used up my free trial for AWS while in college for coursework and didn't rewlly learn much. Add to that, AWS cert costs are higher, and I'd have to pay to learn it too.

Azure:

I think I can get the 12 month free tier for this via the Github Student Developer Pack, which has not ended yet. Same thing can be used for 50% discount on AZ-900 cert which is already cheaper in India. Also, renewals are free.

GCP:

I honestly have no idea about this one, it has a higher cost for certification, and also has high costs for renewals.…
