Phakathi nekota yokugcina ka-2019 sabelane lapha kubhulogi izindaba ezihlobene nenqubo engqubuzanayo nokukhethwa kwalowo ozowina iphrojekthi yengqalasizinda yomnyango we-IT wePentagon, owaziwa kangcono ngokuthi yiJEDI (Ingqalasizinda Yezokuvikela Amabhizinisi) kanye nenkampani ewinile phakathi abaningi abafake iziphakamiso zabo akekho omunye ngaphandle kweMicrosoft.
Umuntu onqobayo ngeke abe nenkontileka yeminyaka eyi-10 nePentagon, kepha inkontileka yayingeyamadola ayizigidi eziyizinkulungwane eziyi-10, okusobala ukuthi iningi labahlanganyeli lapho lizwa "ngomphumela" lidale ukungqubuzana phakathi kwe-Amazon, iMicrosoft, IBM, i-Oracle ne IGoogle, futhi nabakhulu bebengazimisele ukulahla umklomelo wemali futhi futhi basize iPentagon yakhe indawo ejwayelekile yamafu eMnyangweni Wezokuvikela ezobheka wonke amagatsha e-US Army.
Kodwa Isinqumo sokunikeza i-JEDI ku-Microsoft Ngaphambi kokuthi i-Amazon ishaqeke ngaphezu kweyodwa. Ngakolunye uhlangothi, i-AWS yathathwa njengomholi ekwakheni izinsizakalo zefu zeCentral Intelligence Agency futhi okwesibili ngoba i-Amazon yayiqinisekiswe ngezinga eliphakeme lokuphepha, ngenkathi iMicrosoft izabalaza ukuthola i-computing yamafu.
Kumele kuqashelwe futhi ukuthi inqubo yokunikezwa, ethathe isikhathi eside kakhulu kunalokho obekulindelwe, ibinokungenelela okuvela e-White House, njengoba abaningi bezokwazi, uMongameli uTrump kudala wakhombisa ubutha bakhe kuJeff Bezos, oyi-CEO.
Ukuze I-Amazon inqume ukumangalela iPentagon, njengoba le nkampani yasola "ukwenzelela okungangabazeki" ngakuhulumeni ngokunikeza inkontileka enkulu emkhakheni wezobuchwepheshe bezempi kuMicrosoft.
Abaningi bahlobene nokuthi iqhutshelwe eceleni e-Amazon futhi iMicrosoft izonikezwa ukukhetha ngenxa yethonya lezepolitiki likaTrump nokuthi ngenxa yezingxabano ayekade enazo phambilini noJeff Bezos lolu bekuwuhlobo "lwesijeziso" se-CEO ye-Amazon.
Futhi sekudlule izinyanga eziningi ukuze isinqumo sePentagon siguqulwe noma ukuthi uTrump wayezoba nomthelela enqubweni yokuthi inkontileka ikhanselwe, yize kungejwayelekile nokuthi izinhlaka zikahulumeni zikhansele izinkontileka esezinikiwe nokuthi inqubo yomthetho iyaqhubeka ngokumelene nalezi zinkontileka.
Noma ngabe iyini imbangela yangempela yokukhansela inkontileka neMicrosoft, lokhu kuzodala ukuthi umbango osuvele waziwe phakathi kwalezi zinkampani ezinkulu ezimbili ukhuphuke, kepha futhi konke kukhombisa ukuthi uHulumeni wase-United States usevele udinga ukuthi ukwenziwa kabusha kwephrojekthi kuqale ngokushesha okukhulu futhi uncamela ukugwema ukubhekana necala elingabambezela iphrojekthi iminyaka eminingana.
"Lesi sivumelwano besifanele futhi senzelwe i-AWS futhi bekuwumklamo omuhle kakhulu," kusho uJohn Furrier, oyi-CEO yakwaSiliconANGLE, okhulume nabangaphezu kuka-20 abangaphakathi baseCapitol Hill ngalolu hlelo. "Akekho omunye umphakeli obeqeqeshiwe ngokomthetho futhi wonke umuntu ubekwazi lokho." Kodwa-ke, u-Oracle noMicrosoft benza lokho uFurrier akuchaze ngokuthi "ngumkhankaso wokugcoba," okuhloswe ngawo ukuthi "i-AWS inganqobi," esho.
“Ukudlulisela phambili kuzoba yindlela esindisa ubuso yokuthi i-AWS ithole isabelo sayo, bese uMnyango Wezokuvikela uzonikeza omunye umuntu into engabalulekile,” kusho yena. “IMulticloud ayisebenziseki ngobuchule bokusika i-AI. Wonke umuntu uyakwazi lokho. "
Ekugcineni, kwembulwa ukuthi esimemezelweni soMnyango Wezokuvikela kukhombisa ukuthi, kusukela manje kuqhubeke, bazofuna ukuthi zombili izinkampani zithumele iziphakamiso ezintsha ukuthola isixazululo ngokuhlanganyela, ngoba yiMicrosoft ne-Amazon kuphela abasesimweni sokuhlangabezana nezidingo ezidingekayo, ngakho-ke sizogcina ngokubona ukuthi i-Amazon izophatha leyo nkontileka.
Uma ufuna ukwazi kabanzi ngayo, ungabheka imininingwane Kulesi sixhumanisi esilandelayo.

Ngabe lokhu kuhlangana ngani ne-linux?
Ukuthi uma kwenzeka inkontileka inikezwa i-Amazon, ingqalasizinda izoba ngaphansi kweLinux, ngenkathi ngasohlangothini lweMicrosoft kungenzeka ukuthi ibe ngaphansi kwe-Azure (esebenzisa iLinux), yize kungenjalo ngokuphelele.
