It is quite evident that Microsoft and Amazon are competitors in the technology sector<\/strong>. In fact, Microsoft stated at one point that Jeff Bezos’ company is one of its top competitors in the gaming industry, something that needs to be taken with caution and looked at in very specific sectors, such as cloud gaming<\/a>. Now, regarding something related to the cloud, there is recent news to discuss, as reported by Business Insider<\/a>, about a significant deal between the two companies<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n

Delving into the details, the report suggests that Microsoft will have Amazon as its next customer for its cloud-based productivity tools<\/strong>, Microsoft 365. This agreement would benefit a total of 1 million employees, including Amazon’s executives<\/strong>, who currently use a local version of Microsoft Office products.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Amazon is very close to becoming an enterprise customer of Microsoft<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

While the media is still awaiting more details about this potential large-scale agreement, several aspects have already come to light, including the cost of this corporate operation. It seems that this deal will exceed $1 billion<\/strong>, an amount Amazon will have to pay to Microsoft over the next 5 years<\/strong>, at least as indicated in the report. Additionally, it’s mentioned that Bezos’ company could start configuring the new system in November<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This news is quite intriguing, considering there were reports that Amazon was hesitant to use Microsoft’s cloud-based tools due to the rivalry between Azure and AWS<\/strong>. Now, it appears that both companies are on the verge of reaching an agreement worth over $1 billion<\/strong> for Amazon to become a client of Microsoft in the realm of enterprise management.<\/p>\n\n\n
