It seems to me that today IT services depend to much on few large providers such as AWS, Azure, Google Cloud, Cloudflare, etc.<p>They seem to be to-big-to-fail, but are they actually now single points of failure for modern IT infrastructure?<p>Was the old way (each company would have its own data/data-center/network/infrastructure) was more prone to errors and failures?<p>It seems to me that internet this days is pretty centralized.
Startups can create alternatives to those services. Then get bought out by one of the big tech companies like Microsoft or Google. Don't be afraid to compete as long as yours is cheaper and better quality.<p>The Microsoft Windows Empire upsets me because businesses depend on it and Windows 10/11 updates take too long and mess up device drivers and programs.
