I don't know about the percentages but there is at least one b2b e-commerce website application thing with the latest version built with ASP.NET MVC on dotnet 4.8 so it has to be on Windows.

It isn't "cloud" by any means but you can create an EC2 instance or an Azure VM or whatever and put Windows on it and run IIS and all those things.

That and I think on Azure, you can run things like Azure functions and Azure web apps on Windows. I also don't understand why people would pick Windows to run modern software where you have a choice.
