Did you read the full comment?
Yes, Amazon has more users. I said so.

MS makes more money per customer. Bigger contracts.

It's a lot like the PDA days: Palm had the low-end B&W organizer customers at $100-200, MS cherrypicked the high end color multimedia customers at $200-400. Different approaches to making money. AWS wins tbe cheaper, smaller deals; MS wins the big $10B ones.

Look at the financials: that is neck and neck. Kindly stated. The race is hardly over.

AWS is making $10B a quarter, AZURE is making $12B. And still growing faster.
