Each cloud-native evolution is about using the hardware more efficiently. The global cloud computing industry was valued at $371 billion in 2020. Nitro is a revolutionary combination of purpose-built hardware and software designed to provide performance and security. So, the cloud is not a monopoly.

This lack of transparency is by design and provides Apple deniability while simultaneously setting low expectations, making them easier to exceed.
