The recent announcement by AWS to allow customers to transfer their data out of its ecosystem without any egress fees is a significant step towards promoting competition and empowering customers. The regulatory pressures surrounding cloud lock-in practices have led to this action, which is advantageous for both consumers and the industry as a whole. It's encouraging to see major players like AWS, Google, and Microsoft taking steps to facilitate data portability and enable smoother transitions between cloud providers. Such initiatives enhance flexibility and choice for businesses, ultimately fostering a more dynamic and competitive cloud computing environment. https://lnkd.in/eUnfxys5

☁️ Microsoft has announced it will allow unrestricted free data transfers out of its Azure cloud ecosystem for customers looking to switch cloud providers. 📅 The move comes after fellow cloud giants Google and AWS announced they would be scrapping egress fees earlier in 2024. All three appear to be in doing so in preparation for the upcoming European Data Act, which looks to clamp down on vendor-lock in stifling competition in the cloud market.

These decisions also follow provisions set out in the European Data Act which came into force in January, designed to promote competition by allowing cloud customers to switch providers more easily — either to an entirely different cloud; through adopting a multi-cloud approach; or pulling all their data back in-house to an on-premises infrastructure. #cloud #aws #azure #gcp #data #datatransfer #europeandataact
