Resumen

Knowing the advantages of public cloud services is important for undergraduate students that will work in the IT domain. The study of cloud technology should cover not only the theoretical aspects but should also give hands on access and experience with the management interface. Two important players on this market offer access to services as a free trial that allows testing and light cloud platform usage: Microsoft Azure and Google Cloud. This paper compares these free services and their usability in an undergraduate laboratory at the Computer Science specialization and proposes a laboratory structure that should cover this process of investigation.
