Welcome to the Cloud Wars Minute — your daily news and commentary show, hosted by Cloud Wars Founder Bob Evans. Each episode provides insights and perspectives around the “reimagination machine” that is the Cloud.
In this episode, Bob unveils his predictions for an upcoming week of earnings calls among three major Cloud Wars competitors and why he expects major growth despite recession concerns.
