Expressing concerns over the unfair politics getting on the way of fair contesting, Amazon declared that it is contesting for a $10 Bn award by Pentagon for cloud computing to Microsoft Corp. The company has filed an official notice to protest the decision on the Joint Enterprise Defense Infrastructure cloud, known as JEDI.
The CEO of Amazon, Andy Sassy has also said that it would be challenging for a U.S. agency to award a contract objectively when the president is disparaging one of the contestants, according to an Amazon spokesman.
