In my circles people only talk about AWS and Google Cloud. I know there is going to be a massive segment of the market that just defaults into Azure because Microsoft .... but it seems to me that beyond that the race is pretty much over. IBM, Oracle all the others are not going to succeed beyond niche applications.
- sanxiyn 8y agoIn my circles a lot of non-Microsoft people talk about Azure.
- kerng 8y agoYeah, same here. Microsoft seems to really change people's minds these days. Many of my friends disliked them, but now see them as a great option compared to AWS lock in. I think Azure has a strong offering, but that Portal UI, oh my...
- discordance 8y agoYeah the portal UI sucks. Anyone seriously using Azure is probably using az-cli, ARM templates, terraform etc.
- fierro 8y agoanecdata; I have never met a dev or a shop that uses Azure. Maybe the SF bay area is so heavily AWS/GCP that's all I hear about, but I have had the same experience as you
