Google accuses Microsoft of anti-competitive practices. More complaints against Microsoft's policy.
Microsoft is giving itself an unfair advantage in the cloud market, at least according to competitor Alphabet. "Microsoft definitely has a very anti-competitive stance in the cloud," Amit Zavery, vice president of Google Cloud, told Reuters. In addition, Microsoft launches certain campaigns against companies that are its competitors. And Microsoft is using its "dominance in the on-premises business as well as Office 365 and Windows" to "tie Azure and the rest of the cloud services together and make it difficult for customers to have free choice," said Zavery.
Google is asking regulators in the EU to investigate these practices. "I would advise regulators to look at this holistically," said Zavery.
It's not about Google, but about "an open, flexible way to provide software" for customers via the cloud.
