Cloud Computing for ML: AWS, GCP, or Azure?

At some point, your laptop won’t be enough. Training a deep learning model on a CPU is like trying to dig a pool with a spoon. I had to make the jump to the cloud eventually. Choosing a provider is tricky—they all have pros and cons. I started with AWS SageMaker because of the tutorials, but GCP’s Vertex AI is also great. Honestly, the best choice often depends on your company’s existing stack. Just make sure to set up billing alerts. I’ve heard horror stories of $10,000 surprise bills.
