I run both Azure & AWS simultaneously right now. I actually do the MDM side of shit as well, although I've got that nearly fully taken care of, just an occasional call with my manager/director discussing app deployments and whatnot which I pass off to the scrubs under me now that I've automated patching apps.
I'll be honest formal education wise, I did practically nothing to get here. Its all just been pure experience, I was tossed into some very fucked up startups early in my career where I did literally everything you could imagine as an IT person, from kubernetes, to every aspect of AWS, AD, deploying the SIEM, SQL shit, etc.
I have zero certifications just a bachelors in CS and a long history of people trusting me with shit I shouldn't have been trusted with, but I made it work. I got in as a junior engineer, worked my way to senior in a single year (a few companies back) and have been coasting since. If you've worked in devops, you should be fine to transition theoretically, however I'll say I've met a LOT of people who work in devops that should never have been allowed to work in devops and are frighteningly inept, so just depends on you.
the books i've read that I like are: AWS certified solution architecture textbook and the building microservices book by sam newman
