How do you guys think about Microsoft and Oracle cloud cooperation news?

Will it affect AWS? We get paid poorly even with numba 1 market share. I can’t imagine what life will be like if we lose market share.

The only way for oracle to survive

I wish it was Google Cloud that would co-op with Azure.

Google has too big ego to get help!

Microsoft <!> Jun 6, 2019

Not necessarily get help from Azure. If it was Google Cloud, it would be helping each other

IMHO Amazon is too far ahead in this game. Don't see how these competitors can beat AWS anytime soon. What's their total market share? 10%?

Amazon has leeched all cloud business. Satya’s Azure and Oracle are also ran’s in the cloud. Losers aligning to fight the leader.

Microsoft and Oracle will benefit from this in terms of tech, but this is best for Oracle's future and survival.

I think about it with my brain

I was thinking the the same thing. If OPs question is "how"then your answer makes sense.

Losers seeing the writing on the wall and partnering to stay afloat. Amazon has grabbed the cloud market for all its worth and losers are stitching alliances of hope. Deep down they know. Satya has written his book and the paid media appreciates his turning around Microsoft. So much fluff as Azure is crappy and support sucks. Like Satya shut down Nokia and windows phone, his successor may call out the Azure fluff.

OK I like silly theories but this one goes one step too far. Windows phone was a huge money sink which market share was shrinking rapidly. Azure is making profit at large margin and rapidly growing.

Microsoft Russ-Gates Jun 8, 2019

I call bullshit on this. As someone that speaks to customers on a regular basis, there is a huge share of the market that hasn’t migrated yet. >60% of customers in our MAL are completely un-penetrated for any cloud infrastructure services. There is plenty of room to grow, plus new “born in the cloud” companies everyday. Microsoft is doing pretty well in the enterprise and corporate space (the slow adopters) and this oracle move will only accelerate that.

Microsoft San Diego Jun 8, 2019

The market is a lot smarter than the sales pitch can convince to migrate to cloud. The field has been quitting in droves as it’s difficult to change the perception around crappy Azure and shitty Microsoft way of selling and rewarding its employees. Azure is not very profitable and not near what AWS offers by a long shot. The have runs are forced to partner and hope to survive another day to fight. Ask the silicon and HW providers and they will tell you who is expanding and growing real business. The rest are trying to make money from infrastructure already spent on as there is no long term guarantee of usage and monetizing revenue. https://www.moneyworksmagazine.com/has-amazon-leached-all-it-can-from-the-cloud/
