Yes European GDP, especially buying power has been pretty flat over last decades. They simply cannot afford US made products anymore.

US-made... Cloud products? Like there's anything US-specific or unique about Taiwan made/China assembled computers the instant it's sold by a US corporation?
Since they are cloud products and not bare metal servers, yes, you are paying for the specific features of AWS, Google Cloud, Azure, etc that are lacking outside of US companies.
> that are lacking outside of US companies.

Sheesh, I wonder why.

I disagree, that's a price point concern not a market accessibility one. I strongly prefer to be able to sell to another 400M people than not have the option to do so.
