Apple’s in-house cloud stuff is mostly Java on commodity Linux servers. I don’t think they are looking to have macOS compete with Linux.

Most of the special sauce from GCP and AWS is the integrated software services anyway.

Can u give some more details? I am not really familiar with Apple eco-system

But wouldn't most of it (storage, web, streaming) be based on commodity C/C++ projects ?

It wouldn’t have to be exclusively macOS. You could likely choose your OS or it could be some kind of containerization.
