AWS Bedrock vs Vertex AI vs Azure Foundry: Stop Comparing Benchmarks, Start Asking This Instead

Every few weeks, someone on my team, or in a client meeting, asks me the same question: “Which cloud should we use for our AI workloads?” I have been building enterprise integrations for over fourteen years now, and lately most of my time goes into RAG pipelines, vector databases, and agentic orchestration on top of these platforms. So I get this question a lot, and honestly, there is no single right answer. The right cloud depends on where your data already lives, what your compliance team will accept, and which models your architecture actually needs.
