A Network Engineer transitioning to a Cloud Engineer role should focus on cloud platforms like AWS, Azure, or GCP. They should become adept at cloud networking services, virtual networks, load balancers, and security groups. Familiarity with infrastructure-as-code tools, like Terraform or CloudFormation, and containerization platforms like Kubernetes is beneficial. Understanding hybrid cloud setups and network connectivity between on-premises and cloud environments is also crucial for a smooth transition.
