It's quite possible that Amazon and/or Google is prepared to operate their cloud (or some parts of their cloud) at a loss, or at least at zero margins. Look at Amazon's financial statements and you'll find they operate almost all their business on zero margin.

The reasons for that differ - Amazon optimises for growth and market domination over profits, while Google doesn't want to see Amazon control the entire cloud market.
