Amazon Web Services, the cloud computing arm of Amazon.com Inc, said it has acquired NICE, a software developer for technical computing. The company said it has signed an agreement with NICE, which is also a cloud computing firm, and expects the deal to close in the first quarter of 2016. No financial terms were disclosed. Italy-based NICE has customers in industries ranging from aerospace to industrial, energy and utilities. Is this deal favourable for Amazon? What do you think?
