It’s already happening. Plenty of companies and public services are moving away from US cloud providers, dragging their suppliers with them. My company is moving to a EU cloud provider too, because our SaaS clients make us. They won’t renew multi-year contracts if we don’t move with them.
Not enough though. My companys cloud plan is to roll out 100% in aws. It’s so freaking stupid. All the floor guys have said: “you are sure?” We are going to be 100% depended on aws only. Not just 50% or 80%, 100%. It’s so dumb I can’t fathom it for a sec. I where at a conference in Geneva, where the talks were a lot about US tech and how we get survreignity bacn, etc. When I told people about our plan (I’m from Denmark btw) they all said: “You know it is you guys they wanna go to war with right??”
Time to move companies? I don’t know what sector you are in, but in my sector it won’t be long until AWS means you’re excluded from procurement.
