November 15, 2019Amazon attacked Microsoft for the Pentagon's assignment to Microsoft of a $ 10 billion maxi-contract for the provision of Cloud services. According to a spokesman for the group there would be "obvious gaps in many aspects of the contract evaluation process, of errors and unequivocal prejudices". Amazon Web Services participated in the tender, which already provides similar services to the CIA.
