For new professionals in the cloud technology space, one of the drawbacks of the ‘pay to play’ consumption model is the cost of learning.

Trial software and a personal computer allowed for virtually unlimited time learning new technologies and skills. Cloud providers which do not distinguish between fees and registration processes for commercial users versus educational users limit adoption by adding friction to the learning process.
