Bull shite. Do you even have an ounce of understanding of who the major players in the cloud market are? I'll give you a hint: one is just as big as Amazon. The one that won the contract.

Amazon Web Services continues to dominate a global cloud-infrastructure services industry that hit almost $70 billion last year,grabbing a market share equivalent to that of the next four public cloud providers combined

New numbers from Synergy Research Group show AWS’ share of market revenue climbed to about 35 percent in the fourth quarter of 2018, with Microsoft’s Azure business growing the fastest among the top players and pushing to more than 15 percent.

The decision was a surprise because Amazon had been considered the front-runner, in part because it had built cloud services for the Central Intelligence Agency.But that was before Mr. Trump became publicly hostile to Mr. Bezos, who also owns The Washington Post.

Guess Bezos should keep political hacks out of his business model if he wants a fair playing field when trying to get business from politicians? Amirite?

GTFO of here you fricking hack. You have zero, I repeat ZERO understanding of the market you're quoting here.
But please, link more articles written by journalists who have about as much understanding as you on the subject.
Amazon lost because MSFT could provide the same product, faster, with a proven track record with the DoD.
