I disagree. It is _vital_ for cloud providers to keep Intel's feet to the fire. Things got so bad a few years back, Google started porting its entire software stack to ppc64le, which is far less convenient as a platform than amd64. I think we will totally see EPYC deployment in data centers if AMDs benchmarks hold up. You may not even know they're there, but I can guarantee they'll see a significant traction.
