Microsoft has recently become a member of the Cloud Infrastructure Services Providers in Europe. Despite being a non-voting member with limited influence over decisions, Microsoft aims to establish a “constructive partnership” within Europe. This move follows the settlement of alleged anticompetitive practices with the group. Not all board members welcomed Microsoft’s inclusion, with AWS expressing their concerns. The effects of Microsoft’s membership on CISPE’s independence remain a topic of skepticism. The organization now has influence from two major market players, AWS and Microsoft. Meanwhile, Google, unsuccessful in joining CISPE, has joined the Open Cloud Coalition. Questions about Microsoft’s inclusion persist, with no official announcement from CISPE. Confirmation and further comments from Microsoft and CISPE are pending. Keep updated for any developments on this story.
