So far Microsoft isn’t taking customers away from AWS. They’re just expanding the total market.
But I do wonder if AWS will try to buy gitlab.

Even GitHub was never in a position to go public, that seems to be mere postering to drive valuation or attract M&A offers.
I don't know how much control their external board members have, but if an offer came in, the board may be able to force acceptance instead of going public.
Maybe when Microsoft would have opened up some years earlier, Codeplex would not share the fate of Google Cloud.
When did Amazon give up?
