Rackspace vs. Amazon:
“it’s not Rackspace’s goal to compete with Amazon for sheer number of developers or market revenue share. “
There’s a large segment of cloud users that want to pay for peace of mind, he said, which is where Rackspace excels. It will always remain competitive on price, but it doesn’t expect to be the low-price leader. “If somebody want to … get the rock-bottom cheapest price, we believe there are better options than us.”
