💨 Abstract

Google has filed a complaint against Microsoft with the European Commission, alleging anti-competitive practices that lock customers into Microsoft's Azure cloud platform. Google claims Microsoft exploits its dominant Windows Server operating system to prevent competition, charging a 400% mark-up for running Windows Server on rival cloud computing operators, while Azure users are exempt. Google also accuses Microsoft of providing later and more limited security updates to non-Azure customers.
