King of the Cloud: How the Seattle region is positioned to reinvent technology, again - GeekWire

Quote:
The cloud is enabled by high-speed connectivity and sophisticated server technologies that have it made easier for large companies such as Amazon and Microsoft to build and maintain an unprecedented IT infrastructure around the world — something that is difficult, expensive or impossible for smaller companies to replicate. Rather than use their own data centers and servers, today’s developers and corporate IT departments are increasingly renting access on-demand from public cloud providers.
Quote:
Google has much of its cloud expertise in Seattle. Other cloud-savvy companies with engineering offices in Seattle include Alibaba, Cisco, Facebook, IBM, Oracle, Salesforce, SAP and VMware. Apple just made its second major acquisition in the city, machine learning startup Turi, following its earlier purchase of cloud networking startup Union Bay Networks, and is rumored to be looking for a big chunk of space in the region.
