I bought an Anker 5 port USB charger and one of the port died after just 1 month of infrequent use. Their products are very well polished but their QC is bad as you can find so many similar reviews in Amazon. They refused to replace my unit

Thanks for the reply. One more question: Is it still true that your team must develop service on top of Windows? Can your team use Linux? (I cannot see the direct relationship between these cloud services and Windows, except C# support)

If your Windows host need Windows update, then all the Linux guests would need to be rebooted (but seems they've managed to reduce the number of reboot significantly since last year). But regarding the performance and security, most pe

Dear Azure team: you will be more awesome if you offer Linux VM running natively on Linux Host, more developers will come.

You are right that both projects are monolithic (and of coz open-sourced), but it is unfair to compare a VC backed company with non-profit organization.

Good or bad is very subjective, but in AWS without a support plan, there is no way to contact them except you create a thread in a public forum asking for help. If you are lucky your post is not being ignored then someone will reply you may

Always add $49/month (the basic support plan) if you want to compare AWS with DO/Linode, don't just look at the $5/month instance charge.

The issue with Google launching these services is you don't know when they was/will be blocked in China. Not really a global competitor to CloudFront/Azure IMHO.

Congratulation on launching a killer feature once you addicted to it, very hard to move out from AWS :) (but honestly, this is a very awesome technology we've been dreaming for years)

The major problem with Google Cloud is you don't when they will be blocked in China (that is 20% of the Internet population, or if you don't care). On the other hand, Microsoft and Amazon have better communication with the China g
