What is this?
Major providers (AWS, Azure, GCP, and others) offer overlapping services with different strengths and regions.
Why should you care?
CloudVerse often multi-clouds or picks one primary for skills and billing clarity.
See it live — copy this example
Use AWS/Azure/GCP free tier or local Docker/Kind. Sketches and YAML are meant to be typed and adapted.
# Provider chooser (lab)
# AWS — breadth, regions
# Azure — Microsoft enterprise + hybrid
# GCP — data/ML strengths
# CloudVerse default lab: one primary + optional DR secondary
What happened?
- Compare regions, IAM model, managed DB options, and support.
- Skills and existing contracts matter as much as feature checklists.
Practice next
- Pick a primary for the lab.
- List two services you need (VM, DB, object store).
- Check one region near you.
- Price a small VM in two clouds.
- Note free-tier limits.
Remember
One primary provider. Compare regions/IAM. Multi-cloud is a strategy, not a default.
CloudVerse primary cloud
Team picks Azure for Microsoft shop.
Outcome: Skills and contracts align.
