Cloud Computing is most trending technology today and for future. Hopefully, in next 23 years it would be mandatory for each individual to learn cloud computing, because technology is moving the fastest towards cloud, day by day cloud businesses are getting more popular. Eventually, after doing cloud computing course or learning cloud, you can choose your specialization, such as - Windows Server, Linux, Database or Network (CCNA). CCNA is network course, specifically for cisco which will fulfills the knowledge and skill towards network path which is basic level, after that you should go for CCNP and CCIE to get your path straight towards network (advanced level). If you learn this it would be easier for you to learn configuring different routers and switches (I mean for different venders like Juniper), because commands will differ with slight change but logic similar. Most individual goes with CCNA who want their path towards network. Commands, configuring router, switches etc. would be the part. That too nowadays need experience, without any experience companies do not allows you to play with routers and switches. Whereas, cloud technology also have certification of different venders such as Azure (Microsoft), AWS (Amazon), Google Cloud, IBM, Cisco, VMware etc. Learning cloud technology is very simple but need practice, and have vast are to learn further. If you go for path towards cloud it has different levels:
Support, specialist, architect, professional services consultant etc. Summary: Both the fields have their individual career path and opportunities depends on the knowledge that you own. Hope information provided is helpful. All the best for future.
