Ofcom tempted to bring in competition watchdog to sniff the UK cloud market
"We've done a deep dive into the digital backbone of our economy, and uncovered some concerning practices, including by some of the biggest tech firms in the world," said Fergal Farragher, the Ofcom director in charge of the cloud study.
An AWS spokesperson insisted that the UK has a"thriving and diverse IT industry with customers able to choose between a wide variety of IT providers." "These are interim findings and AWS will continue to work with Ofcom ahead of the publication of its final report." "For too long cloud services have drifted away from what users actually want from a provider. We now need to see the regulator, in partnership with industry, build a fairer and ultimately more successful cloud space," he added.
