Report: Apple’s cloud services backend revamp held back by internal ‘political quagmire’

<div class="feat-image"></div>
<p>The Information is reporting that Apple’s efforts to build out its own cloud infrastructure are being held back by company politics. Apple wants to overhaul its cloud services backends to rely on new technologies built in-house but is facing several roadblocks, attributable in part to power struggle between the Siri group and another group handling other Apple services like iMessage and iTunes.</p>
<p>According to The Information, one engineering manager has already resigned with more likely to follow.</p>
