This is a big news for AWS hosted products.

Microsoft Azure has been the worst interms of maintaining a highly available service and also managing predictable latency.

Their azure customer support is bad. Not ready for any real enterprise cloud offering. They behave like Comcast customer support.

It was absolutely idiotic to lock it down to Azure. It wasn't meant to be an iphone+at&t combo where the phone is an end all be all.

A cloud product depends on a lot of services and nobody would switch cloud providers for a candy.
