The European Commission has preliminarily concluded that the cloud services Amazon Web Services and Microsoft Azure should be subject to stricter rules under the Digital Markets Act. Brussels stated after an initial review that the services of both American tech firms meet the conditions for classification among the so-called gatekeepers. Deutschlandfunk ↗
The aim of the rules is to limit the market power of large digital companies. The preliminary conclusion concerns cloud services, which are among the key infrastructure for businesses, the public sector, and digital platforms. The decision is not yet final, and the companies concerned can defend themselves against it as part of further proceedings. novinky.cz ↗
The topic fits into a broader realignment of power in technology. China took first place this week in the TOP500 ranking of the fastest supercomputers, published on Monday at a conference in Hamburg, Germany. The LineShine system uses only chips developed in China and ended almost a decade of US dominance in this closely watched ranking. svet.sme.sk ↗
Changes can also be seen in online retail. Amazon remains the largest player in global online sales, but eight of the world's ten largest e-commerce platforms now come from Asia. European cloud regulation, China's success in supercomputers, and the growth of Asian platforms together show that technological competition is shifting into multiple areas at once. ecommercebridge.sk ↗
