As promised, #HewlettPackardEnterprise on Tuesday revealed details of its new partnership with #Microsoft to become a "preferred partner" selling Microsoft's cloud, #Azure.
As we previously reported, this partnership is a cornerstone of HPE's plans to keep itself in the all-important cloud computing game now that it decided to shutter its public cloud computing business and not compete head-on with #Amazon, #Microsoft, #Google and #IBM.
There's just one problem: HPE doesn't really appear to be getting any special treatment with this deal. It is extremely similar to the same deal Microsoft cut with HPE's arch competitor, #Dell, back in October.
