HPE is done. No one is going to buy into their SaaS bs plan, much less their stock. AWS started in 2006 and was created inadvertently before that to support a company with exponential growth. Amazon has been working on AWS for 2 decades. They have 57% of the market, add in Azure and Google cloud, those 3 own 97% of the SaaS market.

And we go back to the days Meg ran the shop. Under her leadership the company announced to not offer own cloud solutions to customers, but hook up to a hybrid strategy and support other cloud providers.
I bet my a– this was done talking to Microsoft and the deal was HPE pulls out and Microsoft orders in return stacks if Hardware from HPE.
What a terrible deal! Look what this leadership decision has caused and the folks who used to be in charge are long gone.
All management courses (MBAs, executive leadership courses, etc... ) none of the ones I could attend spoke about failed executive steps with a brutal aftermath. So many things to learn out of those misteps.
And NO this is not diversity bashing
Let not get .caught up in the semantics like the HPE Executives bottom line is AWS is light years ahead with their blue ocean strategy. AWS is Lord of the Rings for now not even Microsoft or Google have the ring that controls all the other rings.
