Summary
LinkedIn has decided not to proceed with its plan to move its technology to Microsoft Azure, which is a setback for Microsoft. The decision marks a major reversal for LinkedIn, which had previously announced its plan to switch to Azure in 2019. This represents a setback for Microsoft, as it is competing with Amazon Web Services in the cloud infrastructure market. However, LinkedIn will continue to use some Azure services and will focus on scaling and innovating its on-prem infrastructure.
