=> ↺ What leaked court docs tell us about AWS, Azure and Google cloud market shares
Recently leaked court documents during Microsoft Corp.’s ActivisionBlizzard hearing require us to revisit our cloud forecasts and market share data. The poorly redacted docs, which have since been removed from public viewing, suggest that Microsoft’s Azure revenue is at least 25% lower than our previous estimates.
As a result, we’ve cut and revised our Azure revenue figures, which in turn increases Amazon Web Services Inc.’s Big Four hyperscale cloud market share. Our new estimates show that AWS maintains a greater than 50% share of revenue through 2023. Although the change also helps Google Cloud, its market share is only modestly affected.

The U.S. has nearly 700,000 job vacancies in cybersecurity, which members of a House Homeland Security Committee subpanel said they find troubling in a hearing last month.
“We need not only enough people, but the right people with the right skills in the right jobs to meet the growing cyber threat,” Rep. Andrew Garbarino (R-N.Y.) said.
