First, most mobile subscribers aren't bound to a network. Third, hardware competition is increasingly fierce. While the name of the game is scale, these dynamics suggest it's not a mature market share game for the networks yet, as much as they're caught in the middle. None of them want to finish in 6th place.

Error tracking is a vital component to any web project because it helps you pinpoint performance problems before they get out of hand. Monitoring errors on the front-end requires a bit more work because front-end performance is highly dependant on the user’s hardware, software and connection. What is Error Tracking?

Each cloud-native evolution is about using the hardware more efficiently. Network effects are not the same as monopoly control. Cloud providers incur huge fixed costs for creating and maintaining a network of datacenters spread throughout the word. And even that list is not invulnerable. Neither are clouds.
