Cloud computing is the hot thing right now in the IT world, and I am planning of upgrading myself to be more versatile in the market.

The big 2 in the world are Amazon Web Services and Microsoft Azure. They both have certification paths that you can work your way up, and both of them have free training materials on their website.

https://aws.amazon.com/training/

https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/lear...-training.aspx

I have a IT background in business analysis (not a developer), and I suppose I will try to get certified on both eventually, but which one should I start first, based on difficulty and time to master the material? Also employability (that's pretty important)? Anyone here who are working in the industry can shed some light?

Thank you.

P.S. There is also the Google Cloud platform, but it is a distant third, so I probably won't consider it right now.
