What database platforms you need to manage for SAP is another factor to consider. To get the most out of Microsoft's assistance, customers who already use MSSQL or Hana should consider migrating their databases to Azure. In terms of hana alone, the benefits of using an AWS -XI instance, particularly for scaleout setups, should be investigated, while Azure M series is not far behind. Given SAP's lengthy history of trouble-free operation on Microsoft hardware and software, my first choice for post-migration support would be Azure. This is a debate I've seen many times before: first between Cisco and Juniper, then between Microsoft and Linux, and now between SAP and Amazon Web Services. Do not become certified for the sake of becoming certified; rather, get certified in the technology stack in which you are most actively engaged. Each of the vendor certifications is valuable in its own right. There is no guarantee of employment simply by earning five AWS certifications without any relevant work experience, as AWS in practice differs from what might be considered by AWS to be the ideal solution in an exam or book study. Moreover, AWS cert content expires really quickly as product updates and turnover happen every month in this space.
