Let me know when Amazon lets me run THEIR S3 stack on hardware of my choice. Until then, all the downvotes in the world won’t change the fact they’re doing the same thing only worse.
- CursedSilicon 2y agoWhy would AWS let you run something they don't even sell licenses for? your attempt at an equivalence makes no sense
- ForHackernews 2y agoExactly. They're even more anti-competitive. At least MS will sell you a Windows license. Amazon will only let you run their software on AWS. Apple will only let you run MacOS on their hardware.
- weq 2y ago100%. Amazon is the anti-competitive king. They just copy everything thats popular. unfortunately you cant just copy your way to sql server. Apple, Google, they all do the same. Sour grapes the MS does it better.
