Summary

Google Cloud has increased its storage pricing, a move that may force companies to rethink their current architecture or pay more to keep their applications running as usual. This is not an isolated incident, but rather one of several cloud-related news stories from March, including Intel's plans to build a new billion-dollar chip factory in Germany and the acquisition of cybersecurity company Mandiant by Google. The Flexera 2022 State of the Cloud report reveals that Microsoft Azure is closing the gap with Amazon Web Services, and many enterprises are adopting multi-cloud strategies. Meanwhile, a breach at Okta was discovered two months later than expected, affecting 366 corporate customers, while another breach at AutoWarp in Azure allowed attackers to access credentials for other tenants. Additionally, a misconfigured Amazon S3 bucket exposed the data of a French online luxury clothing store, and Intel is building a new manufacturing operation in Germany to boost chip supplies.
