Google usually gives the biggest bang for your buck, but is not strong in all fields.
Azure will probably fit best if you are already using a lot of Microsoft products and Windows.
AWS is most mature, has the most flexibility, the best console, but it’s VM’s are less powerful or just more expensive

– Pioneer for serverless computing with Lambda, and now Fargate/Elastic Kubernetes Service.
