In this one, Windows will be split into sections all in the name of making Microsoft over to focus on its high-growth businesses.<\/p>\n<p>Microsoft is splitting up its Windows and Devices Group\u00a0and moving the pieces into two new engineering units: Experiences &amp; Devices under Executive Vice President Rajesh Jha and Cloud + AI under Executive VP Scott Guthrie. A couple of units that are currently part of Microsoft&#8217;s AI + Research group are going to be moving into Guthrie&#8217;s new organization. Windows and Devices chief\u00a0Terry Myerson is leaving the company as part of the reorg.<\/p>\n<p>Microsoft is making these moves because the PC market is no longer growing much, if at all. Its cloud and subscription businesses are growing, however.<\/p>\n<p>Now, some of the company&#8217;s recent strategy moves make more contextual sense. Last year, Microsoft laid the groundwork designed to make Windows part of a recurring subscription business via\u00a0Microsoft 365, which is a bundle of Windows 10, Office 365, and elements of the Enterprise Security + Mobility service.<\/p>\n<p>Microsoft is hoping it can do with Windows what it did with Office. The company managed to turn its individual on-premises Office products into a cloud bundle with Office 365 &#8212; which is growing even faster than Microsoft itself expected. (Microsoft officials have predicted the company could have\u00a0two-thirds of its Office users in the cloud by its fiscal 2019.) Now, it&#8217;s trying to do something similar for Windows with Microsoft 365: Create a bundle of cloud services anchored by Windows 10 that will provide the company with a recurring revenue stream.<\/p>\n<p>More can be <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnbc.com\/2018\/03\/29\/microsoft-cloud-reorg-what-insiders-are-saying.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">read here<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Why Microsoft is splitting up Windows in its latest reorganization Microsoft is embarking on yet another reorg, arguably the biggest since Satya Nadella took over as CEO four years ago.
