Despite the cloud revenue totals that Microsoft and Amazon announce each quarter, the media will continue its delusion that AWS is #1. Watch and see.
Highlighting moments of grace, courage, humility, innovation and compassion that we’ve observed from leading tech CEOs amid COVID-19 upheaval.
Six major vendors announce Q1 earnings soon: Microsoft, Amazon, Google, SAP, IBM, and ServiceNow. How will COVID-19 impact cloud growth?
The fact that Microsoft recently made in error in reporting a massive Azure surge is understandable. But its lame correction to that error is unacceptable.
As COVID-19 emerged as a pandemic, Microsoft, Amazon & Salesforce were among the first to establish WFH to protect employees & offer free tech solutions.

Responding to the continued disruption of COVID-19, the CEOs of SAP and Microsoft shared powerful letters to their employees and extended communities.
