I'd be OK with it losing share to others. Currently the situation sucks: you have very few alternatives when shopping online. That is not a normal situation in any kind of a "competitive" economy. I'd go further, and break up Amazon's retail into two companies as well. 2 Amazons, 2 AWS-es, fighting each other to the death would be the ideal outcome.
- reducesuffering 5y agoNo problem. It's already atleast 3+ vs. 3+. Amazon vs. Walmart vs. Home Depot, AWS vs. Azure vs. GCP. Market cap doesn't really lie too much.
- m0zg 5y agoNotably, there's a cartel-like coordinated pricing situation between the big three cloud providers, which manifests in the lack of price competition, and which we need to bust somehow.
- hollerith 5y agoUsually the victims of coordinated pricing are unsophisticated consumers. In contrast, the customers of the big 3 cloud providers are organizations employing specialists in cloud computing. So I am surprised to hear this.
