Netflix Billing Migration to AWS
I find it to be a peculiar business decision to completely (as much as you can) migrate to one of your largest competitors&#x27; cloud service. It seems like Microsoft is the only, of the larger cloud providers, that doesn&#x27;t -really- compete with Netflix. (Google has YouTube, and I guess even Microsoft has a much smaller Windows Store presence.) Even if Amazon can&#x27;t access the raw data, they could see how you&#x27;re utilizing it to improve their own video service, and they get the benefit of billing you and potentially using their pricing leverage to squeeze your margins.<p>I feel like Apple&#x27;s approach of utilizing multiple providers makes more sense (though they do this for uptime and redundancy.) Maybe I&#x27;m being a pessimist.
