It would be great if you can go-ahead with Hadoop and data scientist as the future is here. Combinly once after you finish these courses and start your career either in bigdata or data scientist, in the future you may praobably go-ahead with IoT and Ciber Security upcomingly...and which decides your career in IT for the next 20-30yrs long..believe me..All the Best

My suggestion would be to try to switch to IT infrastructure ( in Azure /AWS) where you do not need to learn much of Scripting/programming. With minimal efforts you will get into IT infrastructure, later once you get a good understanding about Infrastructure then try to learn how you can automate the operations/process then definitely you will look for DevOps culture and tools that will be the right path for you as you are coming from different background. If you directly learn DevOps, you might find it difficult. :)

As they say "Grass on the oter side is always Green". My advise to you would be, if you are good at Finance, you should stick to Finance and grow in same domain. Managers and upper level are also highly paid jobs in India and abroad in Finance domain.
However, if you have made up your mind to move to DevOps which is also high paying job, You will need basic knowledge on 3 things :
1. Any OS (Linux or Windows Systems administration) - This will help you to know how to connect remotely, manage hardware and resources on Cloud.
2. AWS or Azure or GCP knowledge will certainly help you to understand how to deploy codes on Cloud platform and then do monitoring and testing
3. Basics of Networking will help you to troubleshoot your application and issues
In DevOps you will learn automation, Scripting, Monitoring (Nagios), Automatic Deployment of codes (using Chef/Puppet) etc (Configuration Management), Python etc.
Happy Learning and wish you good Luck !
