    Christopher N This is a misconception on how cloud works. Most cloud service providers offer data store services like for example AWS S3. S3 has encryption at rest and in transit and also has the additional option of using dedicated hardware encryption via HSM. There are also Bucket Control Policies which the customer can enforce to restrict access. It is up to the customer to properly implement and secure the data. Cloud providers just give you the tools. If there is a data leak the person you blame is the customer not the cloud service provider. If a person runs a red light and crashes into ongoing traffic it's the drivers fault. Not the car manufacturer.

    @@joshn2342323 If you actually studied that hack you would know that one of the main contributors of it was a misconfigured open-source WAF called ModSecurity hosted in AWS. The misconfigured WAF allowed the intruder to trick the firewall into relaying requests to a key back-end resource. For whatever reason CapitalOne didn't fully practice least privilege and assigned to many permissions to that WAF. This lead to a SSRF attack. If they properly configured the WAF it would have mitigated this attack. You could argue should cloud providers like AWS provide SSRF attack mitigation however at the end of the day the root cause was a misconfigured WAF. AWS has a "Shared Responsibility Model". Customer has responsibility for Security IN the cloud and AWS has the responsibility of Security OF the cloud. It's understandable if you aren't well versed in the tech Industry or in security but if you plan on citing a hack first research it before presenting it.

    This article seems to be missing one of the biggest key components in cloud computing...and that's the infrastructure that connects these clouds through global networks. There's Tata Communications that owns about 30% of the world's fibre backbone and connects most of these data centers via their 15 Tbps Tier 1 network. Without that network infrastructure, these clouds are completely disconnected and useless.

The companies mentioned here are partially in the business of actually owning / running data centers, but are more invested in selling personal and enterprise services hosted at those data centers. In order for the "cloud" as a functioning concept to exist, customers need fast, reliable, secure access to their data hosted in these centers. Without that access, the cloud becomes unusable. You wouldn't run your business on a cloud of you didn't have fast, reliable, secure access to it. There are only a handful of companies that maintain and operate the hundreds of undersea and overland fiber cable networks that connect almost all the world's data centers and clouds. These are huge earth spanning fiber cable networks that are an enormous task to maintain and are the backbone on which the internet runs. One of the largest players in that space is Tata Communications. They own 30% of the world's fiber capacity and about 30% of all internet traffic in the world flows through their networks.

    AWS is still the market leader and is going to remain so for the foreseeable future because it is innovating at a rapid pace and caters to businesses of all sizes. Today it has more than 150 services and a wide geographical reach. AWS offers a strong value proposition to even small companies which can get started by purchasing a domain name from Amazon Route 53, host a Wordpress website on Amazon Lightsail and use Amazon Workmail for their business email needs. Once the enterprise market gets saturated the cloud battleground is going to shift to the SME space where AWS offers a strong value proposition too.
