Increase your skills, not your bills.

Why Azure?

If you know me, you’ll know primarily I work with AWS. In fact, I’m an AWS Certified SysOps Administrator. So why am I here, telling you to get Azure certified?

Well, if you really know me, you’ll also know I believe that blind adherence to one vendor is foolish. In terms of your cloud skills, this has never been truer. In a survey of public cloud users carried out by Gartner, 81% of them said they are working with two or more cloud providers.

“By 2023, half of the total public cloud market will be dominated by the 10 biggest public cloud providers.”

If you really know me, you’ll also know I absolutely love freebies and would skin a turd for a penny.

So as you can imagine, I was overjoyed when I found out how to get an Azure cert for free. On a serious note, with the pandemic affecting so many people’s careers right now, diversifying your skills is a smart move.

Azure Fundamentals is an entry level Azure exam. It is ideal for people with some cloud experience already, or someone with IT skills who wants to break into the cloud professionally.
