Yeah, our AWS yearly spend was high eight figures if you count the clients we supported on the platform. The software update has included a migration to Azure with Oracle Exadata which has now pushed that spend to nine figures. AWS fell asleep at the wheel, IMHO.
Yet I’d say Amazon’s retail operation has had the far greater impact on the market. That’s the reason Lina Khan launched the antitrust lawsuit against Amazon. She wrote a detailed paper on how Amazon uses algorithmic pricing to crush the competition.
AWS is roughly 70% of Amazon’s profit. The retail side is inconsequential.

Cloud spending is massive.

That’s like saying the tip of the iceberg is the most dangerous section.
Do you know how much AWS touches? 33% of the Cloud market. That’s about 1.5 x Azure and triple Google Cloud
Oof. Is there any way for a layperson to avoid it or is it just ubiquitous with the internet?
