      So when you go to AWS console/cli/sdk/terraform and create a resources (EC2,VPC,S3 etc) you hit the control plane. This is like a typical REST service, nothing much fancy every back-end engineer has done something of this sort. But once the resource is created you interact with the resources, i.e say for example you create a S3 bucket, then you put an object to this bucket.....this hits the data plane. The data plane actually deals with the logic of storing and managing your data in a distributed system. Same goes for VPC, the actual software defined networking is implemented in the dataplane.

    That's a lot to learn. First try playing around with any cloud providers explore what's EC2,VPC, object store, block store etc are. Once you've played with these then go for internals of a say a specifc technology. For example EC2, VMs type of hypervisor,KVM,libvrt,qemu, etc . Google a lot. Check source code of openstack, kubernetes. Do this for a few years to really get a good grasp of all the technologies mentioned.
