Netflix Partners With Microsoft to Launch Advertising-Supported Plan https://www.wsj.com/articles/netflix-partners-with-microsoft-to-launch-advertising-supported-plan-11657738975
Microsoft cloud growth has just began..
honestly was not on my bingo card. Microsoft just slid in.
Microsoft just slid right into Netflix's DMs.
I thought it would be Amazon given their dependency on AWS but makes sense to diversify. Plus, Prime Video is competing hard.
So are they moving a part of their business or everything?
Netflix is too tied to the AWS cloud and I suspect it would be impossible for them to migrate their cloud infra. But given that Amazon competes with them directly on Prime Video, I guess they would want to diversify whatever else they can away from them.
Why did you think of Comcast?
They don’t have a cloud
They were reported to be in the running in news cycles over the past few days. But they have a product that competes directly with Netflix - NBC & Peacock - so I think Netflix went with a company that won't be a competitor.
