Question

In comparison to desktop support engineers, what is the typical salary range for cloud engineers?

Answer 1

In general, Cloud Engineers tend to command a higher salary range compared to Desktop Support Engineers. The specialized expertise required for cloud infrastructure design, deployment, and management contributes to the higher earning potential. Desktop Support Engineers, while still essential, often have a more modest salary range due to the broader nature of their responsibilities in providing end-user technical assistance and maintaining local systems.
