If they don’t get it together giant company that I work for who had thus far let engineers/product use slack is going to force us into ms teams. I hope they get it together. They are just handing it to Microsoft at this point with unforced errors.
Thing is as soon as people switch to MSTeams and their (running on Azure) infrastructure for MSTeams is going to shit itself and die. The scale of operations between MS and Slack is few leagues inbetween each other.
I fear the day Im forced to start using MS products. Nothing but troubles with them - from ms servers, to cloud, to apps and “windows phone OS”.
Azure is second behind AWS and runs at a truly massive scale for all of Microsoft's services. It's not going to die from MS Teams usage which already has millions of people.
Perhaps if you actually used MS products, you would have a better idea of how they run.
Azure may have significant market share but I don't know anyone who likes it or recommends it. I find it painful to use. I was rubbed the wrong way when I was forced to install a Windows VM on my Mac to run some Powershell commands b/c Microsoft didn't expose some kind of functionality in the console. Like, seriously? I couldn't just call the API with curl?
All 3 major clouds have their own idiosyncrasies. They're all good and bad at different things and I don't find any single one to be definitely better or worse than the rest.
