Learning SDN vs AWS

As we all know SDN and AWS are becoming/are hot topics in the current industry ,but i wanted to know your guys' thoughts on why should someone even bother learning SDN. Also by SDN I mean having a central controller that is in charge of the control plane of the network devices. Not automation.

SDN is primarily used in the on prem Data Center(i know SD-WAN is a thing) ,but a lot companies are migrating their DC to the cloud(AWS) thus leaving the need to know SDN questionable. I don't see the use of technology unless your company has a hybrid environment with an on prem and cloud,but even then whats market for those type of companies? I could see the need to know if somehow they made SDN work in a campus network.

Will AWS/Cloud technology make SDN useless in the data center field?
