With the current administration, despite accusations of the contract originally being designed "with AWS in mind", I'd take a 99-1 bet this goes to Microsoft. No way Trump will let this go to Bezos' company. And I myself find it incredibly sad how the fact that I think that will happen, with no or muted outrage, doesn't surprise me in the slightest.

GovCloud is AWS and Azure right?

I don't understand why JEDI would be exclusively one provider.
