Apple's cloud is based on Amazon and Azure... Apple doesn't have an "own" cloud.



This set of comments alone is one of the best examples of the ambiguity of the word "cloud" I've ever seen.


That's not quite true, Apple offloads some of its static assets to Amazon, MS's (Azure-based) & Akamai CDNs. There's as yet no evidence that Apple's cloud-based software (like iCloud) runs off anything but their own datacentres.
