According to Gartner (https://www.gartner.com/newsroom/id/3884500 https://www.gartner.com/newsroom/id/3884500), the 2017 revenues were:
Amazon: 12.2B
Microsoft: 3.1B
Assuming Amazon continues on the same 25% YoY trend, it would be 15B in 2018. Microsoft could beat that number by reaching a 400% growth rate. That would be pretty amazing. But it's not the case.
- txcwpalpha 8y agoThis is comparing totally different numbers than what is being compared in the OP. I'm not exactly sure what Gartner includes in its "IaaS" revenue figures, nor am I sure what Forbes is including in its "cloud" revenue figures, but even Amazon's official press release [1] (which is what the OP is comparing) gives completely different numbers for 2017 AWS revenues than Gartner. 1: https://ir.aboutamazon.com/news-releases/news-release-details/amazoncom-announces-third-quarter-sales-29-566-billion https://ir.aboutamazon.com/news-releases/news-release-detail...
