The Cloud Business Podcast with Fexingo: AWS, Azure, GCP, and Enterprise Infrastructure
Every day, Lucas and Luna dissect the trillion-dollar business of cloud infrastructure — the physical data centers, the regional availability zones, the hyperscaler pricing wars, and the enterprise migrations that define modern IT. They track AWS, Azure, and GCP not as product releases but as business stories: how AWS's profit margins shape Amazon's overall earnings, why Azure's hybrid strategy wins regulated industries, and whether GCP's AI push can close the revenue gap. Lucas brings the…
