Could This Tiny Company Take on Amazon, Microsoft, and Google... And Win?
Many of the tools we use everyday -- from tools on our apps to streaming videos -- are in the cloud. The internet has fundamentally changed the way we access the things we want; and three companies are the kings of cloud computing: Amazon (NASDAQ: AMZN), Microsoft (NASDAQ: MSFT), and Alphabet's (NASDAQ: GOOG) (NASDAQ: GOOGL) Google.
But a tiny company is rapidly stealing market share away from these players by focusing on very small customers and offering up simple tools with transparent pricing. That company is Digital Ocean (NYSE: DOCN), and in its short time on the public markets, it has performed remarkably well.
But can it continue to do well when it's facing such behemoths? In this video, recorded Sept. 19, from Motley Fool contributors Brian Stoffel and Brian Feroldi, listen to them break down the bull and bear cases for Digital Ocean. At the end, they'll reveal how the stock fared in their investing frameworks.
