Interesting that it rose about the same amount as Microsoft's cloud revenue which was around 90%. Anyone has numbers for Google?
Side note: numbers between Microsoft and Amazon are not directly comparable because Microsoft includes SaaS solutions such as Office 365 in their cloud revenue. So it is not Azure versus AWS.
Might be able to get more clarity into what they are paying for these undisclosed acquisitions prices, assuming their cost for constructing data farms stays relatively constant.

That is crazy. AWS revenue is nothing compared to their total revenue, right?
AWS contributed $1.82B of the $23.18B in total revenue for the quarter.

That's way more significant than I would have expected. Still, 8% of their revenue contributes 36% of their profits. Makes you wonder why they don't run AWS at the same cutthroat prices as their other businesses.
It's only a matter of time before they split AWS from Amazon, just wondering why they're waiting so long.
I wonder how much of that is people forgetting to shut down unused EC2 instances

AWS have about ... zero competition where they are right now. Google CLoud, Azure and the like are not doing quite the same thing just yet.
