(my background: tech evangelist at AWS for 6 years, then CTO at VMware's public cloud for two, then CTO at startup, now CEO/founder).

I am super impressed by Alphabet / Google / GCP in the linux container segment: this announcement is very timely both as a response to Azure's announcement (quick decision making considering how big Google is), and both in relation to re:Invent and to upcoming Kubecon in December.

GCP is building an outstanding technical platform. I believe this will pay off big time in a few years. Azure, instead is super well positioned as a true hybrid cloud approach, although people overestimate the importance of "hybrid" and underestimate the complexity of it.

I wrote this a year ago on the subject, and I think it's still quite relevant: https://medium.com/simone-brunozzi/the-cloud-wars-of-2017-ac...

Do you mean on my medium post? Where exactly?

Huh, it's late enough that you probably won't see this, but I don't see an easy way to contact you.

The wrong link is in your Medium post: "7) I won’t comment about the recent AWS/VMware partnership... Yaron Haviv, one of the most technologically-savvy CTO I’ve ever met, has an opinion about it."
