Ahh suddenly it all makes sense.

I wondered why my company after 18 months of effort to get going on AWS with certain apps has had a shift to get on Azure 'without compromise' in 2 months.

I doubt these sort of offers are only going to start ups, Microsoft is taking on web services hard core.

This is something we may start to see. I think they are aggressively targeting AWS customers with lower pricing and getting companies (including my employer) to begin the move to Azure.
