I'd disagree. Microsoft has an EA with every significant corporate entity, and basically taxes everyone. They have the ability to leverage those relationships unlike any other.

Azure is the one to beat, IMO.

Leveraged relationships Oracle has, and look how that turned out for them. Universally hated have they became.

Microsoft after a decade of Ballmer is not far from where Oracle is now, despite some recent positive reputation gains. They are already squeezing those relationship by bundling services, and it will be too far too quickly.

Oracle is a very different animal.

O365 is a huge lever that isn't going anywhere.
