Quick and incomplete summary: In recent years Lidl invested heavily in cyber security and cloud computing, first for their own independent infrastructure, but they’re already selling their security and cloud services to other big companies. The video makes the point that eventually they could become a proper competition for Amazon AWS and other services.

      Wouldn’t mind it. Imagine going to Lidl and walking out with some groceries and a new server. Amazing.

      Haha yeah that’s what I thought, but on the other hand Amazon started as a book store, so why not a grocery discounter. 🤷‍♂️
