Microsoft Said to Be Preparing to Make Satya Nadella CEO

One would hope that, if Nadella is the choice, it might mark an actual moment of focus for Microsoft – ie choosing to go all in on their cloud services as a way forward. Microsoft has a solid stack with Azure, and a ton of loyal engineers who will swear up and down the block that Microsoft’s development environment is the gold standard. Mobile will continue to explode, but as it does, the backend servers of all of these apps are going to be more and more critical. This is an area Microsoft actually is well equipped to fight and win.
