Former
$MSFT employee on why enterprises pick Azure vs
$AMZN $GOOGL $ORCL:
Compute is the biggest cost driver, especially GPU-heavy AI. Wrong config = wasted spend. Where do you think companies waste the most on cloud compute?
Azure is weaker in big data & real-time querying vs GOOGL BigQuery, but wins in ecosystem integration (Office, GitHub, DevOps). Do you prefer one ecosystem or best-in-class tools stitched together?
MSFT is moving multi-model (OpenAI + Claude), boosting flexibility and often better AI workload pricing. But multi-cloud reduces discounts in exchange for flexibility—what would you choose: savings or optionality?
ORCL stays database-focused and often runs on AWS-like clouds. Is that a smart strategy or falling behind the hyperscalers?
