These “public cloud computing platforms” are quite impressive. While a priority for Amazon, they go far deeper and venturing much farther out in diversification than Microsoft ever has or ever will - at least until tomorrow. Never know, just an opinion looking at their portfolio. Amazon offerings aside from cloud services is extensive beyond computer technology. Having moved horizontally into shipping bit by bit, watch out - healthcare seems to be next. Microsoft definitely has had more than double acquisitions of Amazon since 1987 (about 240), Amazon about 100 since 1998. Microsoft investment into same tech takeovers, Amazon into products, Whole Foods, shoe company, renting lift, healthcare, etc. and gathering more tech to push their AWS. Microsoft may surpass, don’t know but Amazon doesn’t take prisoners, just buys them or leases them out and doesn’t stay on the highway it knows like other companies, they spread out/venture out. Hit or miss, they just keep trying sh*t just a mere observers opinion.
