Apple Switches $600 Million in Business to Google Cloud
Google Wins a Pot of Gold
Ye that is exactly right me lucky St. Patrick’s day friends. Google has been taking measures to expand its cloud business with larger sized companies and they just hit it lucky. Yesterday, CRN announced Apple will be switching to Google’s cloud platform to store portions of their service and iCloud data. Woohoo. However, Amazon who is the #1 biggest cloud provider, isn’t very cheery. The switch means Apple will be removing their data from Amazon, and to make the breakup even more painful the mega win for Google has between a 400 to 600 million price tag. Wowza. None of the aforementioned parties have commented on the deal but who’s to say St. Patty won’t jump in for a comment. (Source MSN)
What You Need When You’ve Lost Your Keys
Uber just announced that they’ll carpool your kids to soccer practice for free. Haha not really though. Rather they’re making it extremely easy for families and large parties to get around by introducing a family plan, where up to 10 people can be on one tab. The family plan is a result of popular demand and the feature is being launched in Dallas, Atlanta and Phoenix. If that’s not enough Uber news, the company just segregated its food delivery service into a whole new app known as UberEats. The app is available to the lucky folks of Chicago, Houston, LA, San Francisco & Toronto. Up next, Uber on the go dining? (Source MSN)
St. Patrick’s Day Apps
Wanna know the best apps to get you through today’s festivities? Well look no further. Wired magazine compiled this video of Android and Apple apps to help kickstart the party. Also St. Patrick’s day factoid: beer was originally banned on the holiday. It wasn’t until after 1970 that pubs were allowed to remain open for the day. So put your brightest shade of green on and stay lucky. (Source IBT)
