Companies in the EU are starting to look for ways to ditch Amazon, Google, and Microsoft cloud services amid fears of rising security risks from the US. But cutting ties won’t be easy.
Sadly the last few tech departments I worked went all-in on US cloud service - including using proprietary tech over portable standards. None of them at-all took the possibility of divestment seriously, even though the services could easily just ramp up prices once lock-in is achieved and smaller competition is stamped out.
