Tech giant Amazon will train at least 10,000 learners from 10 universities in Kenya in an initiative meant to bridge the cloud computing skills gap that has led to talent poaching in recent months.

This follows a deal between the firm's computing arm Amazon Web Services (AWS), which is one of the major dominant cloud providers around the world, and the Kenyan government through the ICT Authority.
