Cloud Computing vs Microsoft Azure
The published figures from each course's own page, side by side — duration, fees, tools, careers and starting pay — so you can compare without opening two tabs.
| Cloud Computing | Microsoft Azure | |
|---|---|---|
| What it is | deploying and running infrastructure on AWS and Azure instead of a server in the office | deploying and managing infrastructure on Microsoft Azure, mapped to the AZ-900/AZ-104 syllabus |
| Duration | 3 – 6 Months | 3 Months |
| Fees | Ask a counsellor for the current fee | ₹20,500 – ₹25,500 |
| Fresher salary (Punjab) | ₹22,000 – ₹40,000 / month | ₹20,000 – ₹36,000 / month |
| Mode | Classroom, Weekend & 1-on-1 | Classroom, Weekend & 1-on-1 |
Cloud Computing's published band tops out higher (₹40,000 vs ₹36,000 for a fresher) — though the gap closes fast with a portfolio, and both climb well past these figures with experience.
Cloud and DevOps skills are the clearest salary jump available to a working IT professional in Punjab.
