This sounds... implausible, given that every metric I've seen for k8s is pretty much hockey-sticking. For example, it's the 2nd largest open source project ever (after Linux) by contributors & commits.

The OP's hypothesis is that Amazon would much prefer ACS to succeed, because it exists already and provides nice lock-in, and AKS was only launched (after considerable internal shitfights, I'd imagine!) once it became clear they can't just ignore k8s.

Linux isn't the largest open source project ever! Look at Android - it incorporates Linux and then adds vastly more on top.
