GCP has great qwiklab videos/slides/interactive labs. There is a lot of demand for cloudsec in regards to GCP as well if you plan to make a career of it.

It depends on your career goals/trajectory. AWS has the most market share.

Both have brought to go around. Google on the other hand…

Microsoft might naturally align more to your legacy / core knowledge so might be the better place to start. The firm has a ton of resources on either.

AWS has incredible learning programs. Great real world projects for hands on. Both are free, but Azure not as available at free tier.

GCP is much less siloed than AWS/Azure. For a fundamentals approach, it’s hard to beat.
